I'm trying to find out how to determine the date and/or time that a file was created in a simple procedure. I have heard about a few different libraries but the examples I have found haven't been very useful. The basic purpose I want to do is a simple footer provided by a package module through CGI to inform users of the latest update to the code based on the URL. Something simple saying "Version x.xx, Last Modified MM/DD/YYYY." which would automatically get the file modified timestamp. I'd prefer to have, if possible, a simple scalar variable to store the date...for example: $modtime = filemoddate_func(filename.cgi); If anyone can help me with the libraries I need to use for this (if any special), and a code snippet if possible, I'd really appreciate it.
