Try looking at File::stat

This can be used to return information on the file creation, last modified
date/time, etc.

Subject: checking file date/time


Can anyone help me with - or point me to a resource - about checking
file date/time with perl?  I need to write a small script that i can run
with cron and will e-mail me if a particular file is older than 2 days.
The file in question is supposed to be refreshed daily but sometimes our
linkage breaks down without us knowing.

Thanks!
