I am trying to delete all files in a directory that have creation dates
before September 16th. I have been trying to use the find command to do
this, but no luck so far. The best I have come up with is to try to copy
files newer than a particular file of that date, like this:
find . -newer file.name -exec cp -p ../dir \;
but this doesn't work. I have tried using -mtime, -atime, but no joy. I
can't find an option that uses the creation time, and applies it to
files that are OLDER than that time.
Any ideas?
TIA,
Bill Tangren
