py script modify it's Modified Time?

[est]

I guess os.stat() could retrieve information about ctime, mtime of a
path, but how can I change them? Is it possible to make it work both
under Win32 and Linux?

P.S. How to get the current running python? (Like
WScript.ScriptFullName in vbscript)

I am not sure if you can change a creation time of a file on NT, but
the rest sounds possible; according to this post anyway:

http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2001-August/100214.html

It mentions using the win32 modules, which can be found here:

As to your last question of finding the current running python, use
the sys module's "executable" method, like so: sys.executable

That post is rather old... With os.utime you can set the access and
modified time, and it's portable.
Creation time isn't stored on [the normal filesystems used by] Linux, and
on Windows you can use win32file.SetFileTime

It mentions using the win32 modules, which can be found here:
