Dear Netlanders;
I'm new to the MacWorld so please don't flame me for asking an *easy*
question (Just got a SE 6 days ago).
I like to list all the files which are modified after a given
date within a folder + all its subfolders. Is there any public
domain software, shareware, $$$ware, or even source code which can perform
the above task? Something like the VAX/VMS DCL command
$directory/since=date-month-year [...]*.*
or
$directory/since=yesterday [...]*.*
would be perfect!!
I searched through the info-mac archive at Stanford and ftp'ed a bunch of
utilities but couldn't find any thing for the above purpose.
Any hint is much welcome. Thanks a zillion in advance.

It is shareware; there is a limited version you can get for free and a full-featured version that you can get for a shareware payment or from commercial sources. You need the full-featured version. You can get it from MacConnection for $27.00 (US). I recommend it highly. David D.

Something like the VAX/VMS DCL command > $directory/since=date-month-year [...]*.* The "DiskTop" Desk Accessory comes close. It's FIND command can be applied to one or more disks (unfortunately, NOT a single folder) and can use any combination of the following criteria: Name contains "string" Created DATE to DATE Modified DATE to DATE Creator type "FILE SIGNATURE TYPE" and I think I've probably missed something out... It is also LOTS faster than Apple's Find File. It includes heaps of other goodies (complete Finder replacement, able to jump directly to programs, able to play with Finder information etc...) DiskTop is NO LONGER public domain - to get all these great features you need to buy the retail version. Look in computer mag's for "CE Software".
