Program: isBetween
The function \"isBetween\" will determine if the modification date/time
of a file is between two specified dates.
Usage: ${1##*/} [-?vVq] [-b 'BeginDate'] [-e 'EndDate'] FileName
Where:
-b 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS' = Beginning Date/Time (Default:Current)
-e 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS' = Ending Date/Time (Default:Current)
FileName = File to examine to determine if the modification date/time
is between the specified beginning and ending date/time's.
-v = Verbose mode
-V = Very Verbose Mode
-q = Quiet mode

#### Description:
####
#### This function will determine if the last modification
#### date/time on a file is between two specified date/time
#### values. The date/time values required consist of a
#### beginning and an ending date/time, and are expected to
#### be in the following format: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS
####
#### Where YYYY represents the four digit year, MM is the 2
#### digit month number (1-12), DD is the 2 digit day of the
#### month (1-31), HH is the 2 digit hour of the day on a 24
#### hour clock (0-23), MM is the 2 digit minute value
#### (0-59), and SS is the 2 digit seconds value (0-59).
####
#### Assumptions:
####
#### If the beginning date/time or ending date/time is not
#### specified, the current date/time is used as the default
#### value.
####
#### Dependencies:
####
#### This function requires execute permission for the "ls"
#### and "date" commands.
####
#### Products:
####
#### This function examines one file at a time and produces a
#### return code of zero (0) if the last modification time of
#### the file is between or equal to the specified date/time
#### values. A return code of one (1) is produced if the
#### last modification time of the file is not between the
#### specified date/time values. A return code of two (2) is
#### produced if the file to examine is not found. And a
#### return code of three (3) is produced if the date
#### information obtained from the "ls -l" output is invalid.
####
#### The VERBOSE option causes this function to output the
#### beginning time, ending time, file datestamp, and file
#### name. The QUIET option causes this function to perform
#### it's work quietly and not produce any output. If both
#### the VERBOSE and QUIET flags are specified at run time,
#### the VERBOSE flag has precedence.
####
#### Configured Usage:
####
#### This command is a shell function that can be
#### incorporated into other shell scripts, used as part of a
#### function library, or as a stand-alone command.
####
#### Details:
