touch :- used to change the time stamps

Syntax :- touch  options expression filename(s)
          where expression consists of eight digit number 
using the format MMDDhhmm(month,day,hr & min)
E.g :- $ touch 03091245 emp.lst ; ls -l emp.lst 
-rw-r--r-- 1 kumar  metal  870 Mar 09  12:45 emp.lst

The -m & -a options chng the modifications & access times.
$ touch -m 02281030 emp.lst ; ls -l emp.lst
-rw-r--r-- 1 kumar  metal  870 Feb 28 10:30 emp.lst
