Hi, Does anyone know of any permission bit "translator"? One that can translate the permission bit from its textual value to its octal value and vice versa. It is alright if it is always just rwx but on a lot of occasions nowadays, getting a lots of s, S, t, etc.
-rwxrwxrwx 1 oracle dba 0 Mar 11 13:27 x ==> 777 -rwxr-x--- 1 oracle dba 0 Mar 11 13:27 y ==> 750 -rw-r----- 1 oracle dba 0 Mar 11 13:27 z ==> 640 Sometimes I receive instruction to change the octal value of the permission and I want to know how it is supposed to look like after I've done the change so I can verify its ls -l output before and after the change. Any suggestion will be much appreciated. Thanks. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
