find -cmin -amin -mmin about toybox HOT 5 CLOSED

I.E. "this is an option I personally use". Got it. Huh, digging into it, -atime isn't seconds, it's _days_. There should probably be -asec and friends too, but I'm reluctant to add new API out of the blue. (And if I was going to do that I'd want to add a suffix to -atime to specify seconds, minutes, or hours.) Ok, how about this: I'll implement the existing -amin/cmin/mmin api but not add it to the help text, and _also_ implement an "-atime 3m" suffix to specify units (years days hours minutes). Then _document_ the second one, but accept both syntaxes for compatibility, and have "-atime" vs "-amin" change which default units to use. Sound reasonable? Rob

Easily, sure. Please tell me more about your use case? Explanation: I don't always know where to draw the line on featuritis so for non-posix extensions I tend to wait for an actual user to show up and complain about it being missing. "Package $NAME's makefile broke because it did find -cmin" is a strong argument for adding it. "I was reading through the man page and wondering why you hadn't done this, but I've never used it before myself either" not so much. And yes, that second one's come up more than once, which is why I ask. :) Sigh, I should probably add that to the FAQ. Thanks, Rob P.S. The shell's $((42*60)) is an underappreciated posix feature. Not a substitute for other things people actually use, I'm just saying it's nice.
