Hi,
There is a serious bug on date command. when i type " date +%C " i get the

Yes it works great. I'm going to adopt it.
Phil, there is no need for --backward/forward or --offset options now.
Thanks a lot for the solution.

As of coreutils-5.1.1, you can do that by using touch's --relative (-r)
and --date (-d) options together:
$ touch k; ls -go k; touch -r k -d '-30 min' k;ls -go k

non-GNU make programs fail are due to bugs

It often works with simpler builds, yes. But I've had a lot of trouble
with more-complicated ones. It's not worth

Yes! I messed that one up largely.
For curiosity's sake, I've been trying to track down the pedigree of
this --backward option to touch, as although I think I've disproved its
necessity, it seems a useful idea.
To pick a random distro, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 took a
coreutils-4.5.3.tar.bz2 base, and patched it

It's getting messy, but I think this works:
$ touch -d "$(date -d "$(date -r foo) 1 hour ago")"
Hi Bob,
Thanks for your answer. I will try to find the code for the patched version.
> touch --date "$(date --date '1 hour ago')" /tmp/foo
In fact I want the date '1 hour' younger than its current timestamp (not 1 hour
ago from now).

However, I tried several version of touch (coreutils): 4.5.3,
4.5.8, 5.0, 5.2.1 and this option is not available.
GNU touch has never had this (--backward) option.
Or is there another program to change the time stamp of a file
(like 1 hour backward).
touch -m -t MMDDhhmm FILE
