TOUCH(1)            UNIX Programmer's Manual             TOUCH(1)

NAME
     touch - update date last modified of a file

SYNOPSIS
     touch [ -c ] file ...

DESCRIPTION
     _T_o_u_c_h attempts to set the modified date of each _f_i_l_e. This
     is done by reading a character from the file and writing it
     back.

     If a _f_i_l_e does not exist, an attempt will be made to create
     it unless the -c option is specified.
