Find files which are created a certain time after or before a particular file was created You're right, your solution works ;) Thanks a lot |

Find files which are created a certain time after or before a particular file was created Hmmmm I see what you're saying, however in my case if I have the following files: 'testBefore.txt' with the modification time of 6pm and then 'test.txt' at 7pm and lastly 'testAfter.txt' at 8pm, your code will only bring up 'test.txt' and 'testAfter.txt', but not 'testBefore.txt' |

Find files which are created a certain time after or before a particular file was created Yes, GNU find is available for me. Currently using Debian GNU 6.0.5. Why? Is there a difference in the various finds? |

Find files which are created a certain time after or before a particular file was created @j-f-sebastian: what I'm saying is that currently your code picks up anything that is in the timeframe of being newer than the test.txt file by up to 59 minutes, as the ! -newermt ... deals with that. Your code currently only finds the files after the test.txt file, but it doesn't find the files which were created within the 1 hour tie frame before it. Do you see what I mean? |

Find files which are created a certain time after or before a particular file was created Ok, @j-f-sebastian tried the various ways out, however the one liner isn't fool proof. Doesn't seem to work all the time, especially when i break it down into separate chunks i.e. finding the files which are created one hour after test.txt. Any ideas? |

Find files which are created a certain time after or before a particular file was created Wouldn't I have to use -o as opposed to -a since I'm looking for files created 1 hour before OR 1 hour after the file creation/modification. Also is the one liner to be used in conjunction with anything else? I.e does $file have to be declared before somehow or can I just do "$(date -r test.txt) -1 hour" ? |

Find files which are created a certain time after or before a particular file was created I see your solution, but isn't there a more 'elegent' way of doing this? Apparently there is a 1 line solution for this problem... |
