Very good! Thank you all!
So in conclusion, does this sh script look good?
I mean, can the first 3 commands be put like that?
$ chown -R fafa:wheel *
$ find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
$ find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
$ find . -type f | while read file ; do
if grep '^M' "${file}" >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then
sed -i '' -e 's/^M//g' "${file}"
fi
done
Forever grateful! That's me.
