Title: RE: Portable solution for modifying date

C:\>perldoc -f utime
    utime LIST
            Changes the access and modification times on each file of a list
            of files. The first two elements of the list must be the
            NUMERICAL access and modification times, in that order. Returns
            the number of files successfully changed. The inode change time
            of each file is set to the current time. This code has the same
            effect as the "touch" command if the files already exist:

                #!/usr/bin/perl
                $now = time;
                utime $now, $now, @ARGV;
