Hi David,
are you suggesting a syntax like..
ls -l -newer
might produce results?

Thanks,
Kare
<who is trying to locate a file..without its exact name.
Oh how about
ls -l -newer *.txt
As a possibility?

 Hi folks,
 Will aim to ask this simply enough.
 is there an option  for the ls command allowing you to set the date
 window you are searching?
 For example, list only the items    added  on a certain series of
 days?

 Thanks,
 Kare


See find(1) section "TESTS" and the various tests related to atime, ctime, and mtime (including -newer).
