Also, if you need only one time-stamp per file and it's acceptable to
have this time stamp at the top of the buffer, you can put

(add-hook 'write-file-hooks 'time-stamp)

into the .emacs and then the line (or similar)

;; Time-stamp: "2010-02-19 12:15:41 userloginname"

near the top every file you want time-stamped.

The string part is formatted per variable 'time-stamp-format.

Every time the file is saved this commented line will be updated.
