   NAME
         settime - changes the access and modification dates of files.

   SYNOPSIS
         settime mmddhhmm[yy] [-f fname] name...

   DESCRIPTION
         Sets the access and modification dates for one or more files.  The
         dates are set to the specified date, or to the access and
         modification dates of the file specified via -f.  Exactly one of
         these methods must be used to specify the new date(s).  The first mm
         is the month number; dd is the day number in the month; hh is the
         hour number (24 hour system); the second mm is the minute number; yy
         is the last two digits of the year and is optional.  For example:

         settime 1008004583 ralph pete

         sets the access and modification dates of files ralph and pete to
         Oct. 8, 12:45 AM, 1983.  Another example:

         settime -f ralph john

         This sets the access and modification dates of the file, john, to
         those of the file, ralph.

   NOTES
         Use of touch in place of settime is encouraged.
