TOUCH(1) An MS-DOS UtilityTOUCH(1)


NAME
touch - modify the date and time stamp for the named file(s)

SYNOPSIS
touch [-d date] [-t time] [-v] filespec...

DESCRIPTION
Touch allows you to modify the date and time of last write stamp
for the named file(s). You may specify the date and/or time
touch is to use, or you may let touch default to the system date
and/or time.

Touch supports the following options:

-vVerbose: list the touched files to stdout.

-d date Date: use the specified date instead of the
system date. The date string must be in the form



Month must be an integer in the range [1..12];
day must be an integer in the range
[1..max_date_for_month]; year must be an integer
in the range [1980..2100], though [80..99] may
be used as a shorthand form for 1980..1999. The
delimiter may be any non-numeric character.

-t time Time: use the specified time instead of the
system time. The time string must be in the form

[]

Hour must be an integer in the range [0..23];
min must be an integer in the range [0..59]; the
optional sec must be an integer in the range
[0..59] The delimiter may be any non-numeric
character.

The filespec parameter(s) may be any legitimate MS-DOS filespec
and may include any valid MS-DOS wildcard characters.

If an error occurs during the attempted modification (such as
trying to modify a sub-directory), a message saying so appears
in the output next to the appropriate filespec. Touch then
continues with the next filespec.
