Your e-mail client is wrapping somewhere around 90 columns. On this
list, it is generally regarded good netiquette to wrap at less than 80
colums, and most consider 72 idea. Please configure it to something
less than 80.
At some point hitherto, [EMAIL PROTECTED] hath spake thusly:

That is not what my manpage for stat(2) says at all:
The field st_mtime is changed by file modifications, e.g.
by mknod(2), truncate(2), utime(2) and write(2) (of more
than zero bytes). Moreover, st_mtime of a directory is
changed by the creation or deletion of files in that
directory. The st_mtime field is not changed for changes
in owner, group, hard link count, or mode.
This is on RH 7.1, but the stat times are modified by the kernel, and
should be reletively independent of distribution.
