news file date

From: Andrey Fidrya (andrey@ALEX-UA.COM)

I'm trying to implement a warning system for players, which will show
something like "You have news waiting" at login if date of news file
differs from date stored in char's variable.
But I don't know how to work with file date using ANSI C functions only. :(
Can anyone help me? Basically I have two questions:
How can I get date of creation of file?
In which type of variable it can be stored?

Thanks!
