.th WHATSNEW I 5/31/77 .sh NAME whatsnew \*- compare file modification dates .sh SYNOPSIS .bd whatsnew [ \*-yymmdd ] [ listfile ] .sh DESCRIPTION .it Whatsnew will compare the modification dates of files listed in .it listfile against the date supplied and report those files that have changed since that date. By default, the modification time of the file \fB.\fP\fInewdate\fP in the user's login directory will be used as the comparison date. Similarly, the file \fB.\fP\fInewlist\fP in the user's login directory will be used if .it listfile is omitted. .s1 If a date is not supplied and \fB.\fP\fInewlist\fP exists, it will be re-created. This will essentially update the default comparison date used by subsequent .it whatsnew commands. .s1 Entries in the list file should be relative to the login directory, one per line. If an entry is a directory, files in that directory will be compared. Only one level of directory searching is performed. .sh FILES /logindir/\fB.\fPnewlist .br /logindir/\fB.\fPnewdate .sh DIAGNOSTICS ``bad date'' if the supplied date is earlier than 1970. .br ``cannot read list'' if the list file is not readable. .br ``cannot access file status'' if it can't.
