Hi all

I was writing a script yesterday, and I wanted to have a test to compare
the modification time of two files. test(1) doesn't have the ability to
do this. In the end I worked around this by using make(1), but it set me
thinking - wouldn't it be a good idea to add some new tests to test(1),
to compare files based on criteria like size or modification date?

Anyone else think this is a good idea?
