Ok im doing this in ksh 1st off
i have an input file that gets read it has the fields f or d (file or directory) path and filename all seperated by whitespace. Im gonna add on to this ttl (Time to live). Now i want to be able to somehow do an ls -? <---dash something not sure what. So i can see the files currently in there and somehow see the creation date of these files then based off the creation date and the current date i want to see the number between the two almost like a datediff then that number will be identified by a variable for example x then i will simply do if [$x ge $ttl] then remove file what would i want to look into doing
