Is the a way in mac os X or in unix to find out when an application was last run.
I know under the apple menu I can find the recent applications but I would like to know the date and time.
is this possible at all?

Look in /Users/userid/Library/Preferences/appname
Do an ls -alt * in there and it will tell you which app was run most recently in descending order. Even if you just open and close an app it will diddle with the .plist files for that app.
