> How do I list files created in a directory on a specified date?
You can use the find command with -exec ls {} \;
Unfortunately you can't search on when a file was created. Your options are:
-atime - when the file was last accessed
-ctime - when the file's status was last changed
-mtime - when the file's contents were last changed
So, you could use eg:
find /home/ross -ctime 1 -exec ls {} \;
to see what files ctime have changed in the last 24 hours.
'man find' to get more information.
