Glob qualifier for modification time on directories

Glob qualifier for modification time on directories

[Jörg Sommer]

Hi,

doesn't the modifier m work on directories?

% ls -ldt ${(s.:.)PATH}
drwxr-xr-x 2 root  root  49152 27. Mai 11:25 /usr/bin
drwxr-xr-x 2 root  root   4096 23. Mai 18:36 /bin
drwxr-xr-x 2 root  root   8192 22. Mai 15:52 /usr/sbin
drwxr-xr-x 2 root  root   4096 20. Mai 17:06 /sbin
drwxr-xr-x 2 joerg users  4096 20. Mai 09:54 /home/joerg/bin

% echo ${(s.:.)PATH}(Nms-20)
/home/joerg/bin /usr/lib/ccache /home/joerg/bin /usr/local/bin /usr/bin
/bin /usr/games /usr/sbin

Bye, Jörg.

You're only applying the glob qualifiers to the last entry, unless you
have RC_EXPAND_PARAM set.  Try

% echo ${(s.:.)^PATH}(Nms-20)

or, in fact,

% echo $^path(Nms-20)

Yes. Now I see the fault. Thanks.
