I need to put together a script that checks to see if a file is older
than 15 mins and if it is it will output a message. Any ideas?

($dev,$ino,$mode,$nlink,$uid,$gid,$rdev,$size,$atime,$mtime, $ctime,$blksize,$blocks)
= stat($myfile);

The variable $mtime is the time when it was created; you may then
compare two runs.
