This documentation is no longer being maintained and may be
inaccurate or incomplete. The Texinfo documentation is now
the authoritative source.
This manual page documents the GNU version of ttttoooouuuucccchhhh. ttttoooouuuucccchhhh
changes the access and modification times of each given file
to the current time. Files that do not exist are created
empty. If the first file name given would be a valid
argument to the -_t option and no timestamp is given with any
of the -_d, -_r, or -_t options and the -- argument is not
given, that argument is interpreted as the time for the
other files instead of as a filename.
If changing both the access and modification times to the
current time, ttttoooouuuucccchhhh can change the timestamps for files that
the user running it does not own but has write permission
for. Otherwise, the user must own the files.
