NAME

timetransfer - transfer the modification time from one file to another  

SYNOPSIS

timetransfer [ +xxx | -xxx ] fromfile tofile [ fromfile tofile ]...  

DESCRIPTION

timetransfer copies the last-modified time from the file fromfile to the file tofile. This is helpful if a timestamp needs to be transferred to a file. If +xxx or -xxx is present, then xxx seconds (a float value) is correspondingly added to or subtracted from the modification time.

fromfile and tofile can be the same; thus
           % timetransfer +86400 myfile myfile
increases the last-modified time by 1 day.
