Hello,

I have a request for the 'locate' program:

I would like to see an option added that would add the modification
time/date to the results (files found by locate). This would be
similar (even identical) to
the output of 'ls -l <filename>'.

I have limited C coding experience, but I'll offer to help with the
necessary modifications to implement this feature.

Thanks,
~Seamus
