I want to get the modification date of a file in a AIX system, but in a date-time format, for example (dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss) (SECONDS included)
When I make an ls -la, I get this:
hacsvc08:/home/grpa/dwb/DWBANTE/IN > ls -la *D070120* -rwxrwx--- 1 vadwb gadwb 75 25 abr 13:42 CONTADOR.ENT.D070120
I want to know the date 25 abr 13:42 with seconds that is: 25 abr 13:42:XX

Do you have Perl in your system? if have, you can do #perldoc -f stat and it shows you how to get time info from a file.

Too bad you can't take ghostdog's perl suggestion. The problem with the classic long listing of the ls command is that the structure changes after the file is 6 months old.
