epoch - Displays the raw epoch time of the last modification for the named files
epoch [options] <filenames>
The epoch command displays the raw epoch times of the last-modification time for the named files and directories.
If no files are given on the command line, then the contents of the current directory will be listed.
If a directory is given on the command line, then its contents will be listed. Normally, epoch will not list files whose names begin with a dot (.) when listing a directory. This may be overridden with the -a option.
epoch follows the behavior of ls in following symbolic links. Options allow control of this behavior.
Output is always one line per row.
The following options are handled by epoch:
List directory entries whose names begin with a dot, as well as other entries.
Directories are displayed as regular files; their contents are not displayed.
Symbolic links on the command line are followed. This is the default behavior.
If a command-line argument is a symbolic link, the link itself will be listed rather than the node the link references. This option cancels the -H option, reverting symbolic-link behavior to the default.
Displays a usage message.
