Thanks a lot for your kind response.

Generally, minimal systems like OpenWrt lack the commands and command
line options available on desktop systems.
I hope that TRAMP will continue to provide a wide range of coverage in
this regard.
Of course, I think the developers have been doing that for a long time.
Thank you very much, Mr. Michael Albinus and all the developers.

This thread was about the touch command, but there was also a problem
with the stat command.
So I will summarize the contents and send it under a different subject.
(It could be days later.)

BTW, what is "alsp" an abbreviation for?
