Hi All,
I have some files which are creates every day using a script. I want to create a log files which does write "filename,creation day and time"
how can I do this ??

Getting the time of creation is not easy especially if you modify the file after it is created.
This script will work just the way you want, if the newly created files are not modified after their creation.
From within the directory where you need to run the script
cd /path/to/dir
ls -l | awk '{ printf $9 "-" $6" " $7" " $8"\n" }' >> output.txt

A bit funky but might solve your problem.
In the script which is creating the file just write before the action statement a similar echo statement.
Like
echo touch tmp > log
echo `date` > log
touch tmp
it works well. thank you to all
