I have a question on a shell script I am trying to piece together (and it must be a shell script. I am trying to find time to learn Perl, but at this point it looks to me like a cat walked across a keyboard....). I need to go through a directory and move any file older than 10 days. How do I go about this? I know that I can get the date from 'ls -l', but I don't know how to use this in a comparison? I know that I could probably come up with a really (really) ugly set of logic statements, but there has got to be an easier way. Anybody want to share their thoughts/ideas? Please?
