There's still more to do.

You can use @code{file-attributes} to get a file's last modification
time as a list of two numbers.  @xref{File Attributes}.

@cindex modification time of file
@item
The time of last modification as a list of two integers (as above).

@item
The time of last status change as a list of two integers (as above).

For example, here are the file attributes for @file{files.texi}:
[...]
@item (19145 42977)
was last accessed on Oct 5 2009, at 10:01:37.

etc.
