Just a thought if you want to base it on the date (ie the 25th) you can call localtime and give it the mtime to work with. You get the mtime into a var then call localtime using that var. Then use localtime(time) to determine the current date and comapre them the code below runs on Win 98 SE. I hope that this is what you are looking for<
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my $filename = 'Temp.txt';
#get stats
my ($dev,$ino,$mode,$nlink,$uid,$gid,$rdev,$size,$atime,$mtime,$ctime,
+$blksize,$blocks)= stat($filename);
#get current time and date
my ($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year,$wday,$yday,$isdst)=localtime(tim
+e);
#convert modtime to local format
my($mod_sec,$mod_min,$mod_hour,$mod_mday,$mod_mon,$mod_year,$mod_wday,
+$mod_yday,$mod_isdst)=localtime($mtime);
#compare current date to modified date
if (($mod_mday == $mday) && ($mod_mon == $mon) && ($mod_year == $year)
+) {
#Do whatever if modified today
print "$filename modified today\n"
}
else {
#DO things if not modified today
print "$filename not modified today\n";
}
