Hi all,

I just tried to use the 'find' command to locate for me all files on a
filesystem that were modified on a given date. I have just discovered
that this is a moderately difficult problem. 'man find' tells me that
there are atime, ctime and mtime options but they only let me specify
time relative to today in hours. I can see that I potentially could
construct a find query with these tools and judicious use of -a and '!',
but that can't be the simplest way.

I also checked the gnome find tool thing fearing that I had just become
incapable of reading manpages but discovered to my shock that it can't
do it either.

Anyone have any ideas on this?

Thanks,

James.
