Re: need to remove files older that 1 day

Re: need to remove files older that 1 day

Ah, I see. I parsed the sentence the wrong way.

I should have read; Assuming UNIX95 is not set, which tells the system to 'FIDDLE_WITH_FIND_TIMES'. See ...

Silly enough I read it as UNIX95 had to be given the specific value FIDDLE_WITH_FIND_TIMES where I did not stop to think how that could be, where that value would be defined, other than in a geekish mind.

>I first looked in some man pages

This option says what it does. :-)
You just need to wait until I use it a few more times like "zombie master" and UNIX95=EXTENDED_PS_FEATURES.

>JRF: @ Hein - See the dialog in:

Right. I had to use google to find this.

>JRF: AND my comments about UNIX95 settings in:

That I found with forums advanced search.

>Hein: I should have read; Assuming UNIX95 is not set, which tells the system to 'FIDDLE_WITH_FIND_TIMES'.

No, just the opposite. If it IS set it fiddles with the times as incorrectly documented. If not set, it does the divide and truncate.

>Silly enough I read it as UNIX95 had to be given the specific value FIDDLE_WITH_FIND_TIMES

That's exactly what I meant. It should be set like that, then you know what it does.

>where that value would be defined, other than in a geekish mind.

Well, a language lawyer where you need to make N logical inferences. :-)
