Russell, the point of my last post was to show that I had tried test.txt in $mircdir and test.txt in the root directory, creating each file and accessing each file separately, and subsequently checking the atime property. It was to see if mirc was treating files in $mircdir differently from those in other directories. Sorry if it wasn't clear.
Can somebody who says that they get a different response from .atime and .mtime please show me their method?
