end
sys.alert(print.out())

--
local attr = lfs.attributes("/var/mobile")
--
print("type", attr.mode)
print("last access", os.date("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S", attr.access))
print("last modification", os.date("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S", attr.modification))
print("last status change", os.date("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S", attr.change))
--
sys.alert(print.out())
