Time Ranges
A time range specifies a file modification time without reference to the date. For example, to select files modified between noon and 2:00 pm on any date, use /[t12:00p,2:00p]. The times in a time range can either be in 12-hour format, with a trailing “a” for AM or “p” for PM, or in 24-hour format.
If you omit the second argument in a time range, you will select files that were modified between the first time and the current time, on any date. You can also use offsets, beginning with a plus sign [+] or a minus sign [-] for either or both of the arguments in a time range. The offset values are interpreted as minutes. Some examples:
Specification | Selects Files |
---|---|
/[t12:00p,+120] | modified between noon and 2:00 PM on any date |
/[t-120,+120] | modified between two hours ago and the current time on any date |
/[t0:00,11:59] | modified in the morning on any date |
The HPFS file system maintains 3 sets of date and time for each file: creation, last access, and last write. By default, time ranges work with the last write time stamp. You can use the “last access” (a) or “created” © time stamp in a time range with the syntax:
/[ta...] or /[tc...]
