Yo need "find" command and its -newerXY or -mtime options.
find . -maxdepth 1 -newermt 2026-05-01 ! -newermt 2026-05-10 -ls
Meaning: The "m" in "-newermt" means modification time. It finds files
newer than 2026-05-01 but not newer than 2026-05-10. It is also possible
to use relative times in days, with -mtime option:
find . -maxdepth 1 -mtime -20 -mtime +5 -ls
Meaning: never than 20 days ago but older than 5 days ago.
