I need to batch edit file creation date (some stupid audio recorder set the file creation date to UNIX epoch and the correct recording date in the modification date) to set it to the files modification date.
I am aware of the touch
command which can set a file creation like this touch -t 201406251546.10 filename.wav
but I don't know how to retrieve each file modification date to give it as an argument to the touch
command.
I also know that the ls -lT
command prints the modification time before each file but on my system (OS X 10.9) the output is localized which is not really handy for batch processing
Any idea on how to do this?
