I was able to find that in FreeBSD the -U in ls (1) does the job.
However i could not find any inode creation time related info for
linux
(ext3).
Anyone has any clue on that?
I believe "ls -l" by default shows the created time, you can switch to
show the last modified time using "ls -l --time=atime"
Just another note on this, atime is the last access time. ctime is
the real
last modify time, mtime is another modify time that can be changed
(which
is useful after backups). atime is often disabled in ext3 file
systems to
reduce I/O, since it isn't all that useful.
I thought it was as well to begin with - but in "ls" on Linux there's
a separate "atime" and "access" value to the "show time" parameter in
"ls" - so if "atime" is the last access time, what's "access" mean?
Hmm ok just done a bit of experimenting on this - "atime" and "access"
show exactly the same information - "mtime" is an invalid value
according to my Fedora 5 system. Confused.
-- start paste --
ls -l / --time=mtime
ls: invalid argument `mtime' for `--time'
Valid arguments are:
- `atime', `access', `use'
- `ctime', `status'
Try `ls --help' for more information.
