Modification date on directories and files
[1/2] from: maillist::peter::home::se at: 21-Aug-2005 12:34
Hello!
I was wondering when the modification date of a directory
is changing if a file within the directory has been
modified, added or deleted?
I am writing a script that shows the modified files since
a specific date. It would have been a great improvement
in speed if I first could check the modification date of
a directory to decide if I should check the files within
the directory or not.
Best regards,
Peter Carlsson

A quick check seems to show they're not changed in Windows98. It may differ from OS
to OS though.
