Re: [newbie] Quick chmod question

[Carl J. Bauman]

That will chmod any sub-directories as well -- not just the files within those directories -- which may not be what you want. You might want to use the find command to be a little more selective:

find your_directory -type f -exec chmod your_mod {} \;
