I knew I was going to hate python, and I do. My script was failing because
there were spaces indenting a line instead of a tab.
I finally, after much struggling, ended up with this:
#!/usr/bin/python
import sys
import datetime
import re
for line in sys.stdin:
line=line.strip()
myDate, myPath = line.split(' ',1)
myDate = str(datetime.date.fromordinal(int(myDate)))
myDate = re.sub('[^\d]','',myDate)
print 'touch -ct {}0001 {}'.format(myDate,myPath)
Thank you all for your help.
Now, one other thing, if I wanted to execute the touch command (I don't, in
this case), could I do that within the python via some sort of exec() function?
