UNIX files have *3* time attributes, instead of DOS's one:
     Creation (when the file was made)
     Access (when someone or something "looked" at the file,
             similar to the "archive" flag toggle)
     Modified (when the file was last changed, DOS just updates
               Creation, so every time that you edit a file it
               becomes "new" again)
