that worked fine in the following shells:

1) Linux 2.6.12-9-386 GNU/Linux,
GNU bash, version 3.00.16(1)-release (i486-pc-linux-gnu)
2) SunOS 5.8
GNU bash, version 2.03.0(1)-release (sparc-sun-solaris)

not working under 'tcsh'.

Also, if there are whitespaces within filenames, it might be better to
reset IFS before assigning array, like:

IFS= ; arrar=( $(find . -type f -mtime ${maxTime}) )
