Touch your files instead
Authored by: Anonymous on Jan 14, '02 11:39:27AM

I know about touch, but I specifically wanted to make sure that the files modification date was the same as the creation date, in other words, keeping the images that I edited in the same folder as the untouched (no pun intended!) images.

Doing a global "touch" as you outline does not solve my problem.

I appreciate the comment - I did consider 'touch', in combination with various scripting technologies, but getting that 'creation date' from a file was problematic. Got some code that does a getattrlist on HFS volumes, but then found this program that did what I wanted.
