Can someone tell me an easy way to change a file's modification time and
date?  By "easy" I mean a method that doesn't require me to muck around
with disk tracks in hexadecimal.  Ideally I'm looking for a desk accessory
or utility program that will put up a dialog that will let me enter the
modification time I desire for the file.  (I know how to do this on UNIX;
how about the Mac?)  I have an SE running System 4.2 and Finder 6.0.
