Hey does anybody know how to read the file creation date and time from
a file to a TDateTime ?

Maybe i need the file change date later on.

On linux.

It is ment to poll in a loop to see if a .hex file is changed and then
start avrdude with the filename.

also when its overwritten.

PS: i did try some default functions, but does not seem to be
sufficiant

Look up fpStat() and fpFStat() in BaseUnix.

See also a demo in the wiki.

Watch it: you're not running SH and almost certainly aren't running sh
either :-)

Different shells use different startup scripts at different times:
you're probably running either Bash or Dash so /probably/ need to look
at ~/.bashrc
