Hi
Excause my bad english first, english is not my native langueag :-(
I have added one small feature to gnu chmod. Look at the patch, it's very
usabele I thig.
The feature is in two new parametres -D --dirsonly and -F --filesonly when
you want to change mods recursively only to files or only to directoris.
(because of changing +x mode to directories by using chmod -R 755 . makes me
angry, because +x mode will be changed on files too.) Making scripts
find-based makes me dizzy.
The patch is for chmod from fileutils-4.1.5
