Re: file times still not quite right with 1.5.14 on Windows 98

Hi,

OK. I try again using ">>" with the same file.


C:\Download\test>echo >> test.txt
C:\Download\test>ls -l test.txt
-rw-r--r--  1 piskozub mkgroup 14 Apr  4 00:14 test.txt
C:\Download\test>ls -l --time=ctime test.txt
-rw-r--r--  1 piskozub mkgroup 14 Apr  3 23:20 test.txt

The result is identical as with ">". Now time for bash:

C:\Download\test>bash
BASH-2.05b$ echo >> test.txt
BASH-2.05b$ ls -l
total 1
-rw-r--r--  1 piskozub mkgroup 16 Apr  4 00:14 test.txt
BASH-2.05b$ ls -l --time=ctime test.txt
-rw-r--r--  1 piskozub mkgroup 16 Apr  4 00:15 test.txt

Again, same as with ">".

So maybe it's not a problem with appending? At least in case of Windows ME.

Regards,

Jacek
