Gentlemen, some of these are clearer than man test or (info "(coreutils) Access permission tests") bash$ help test|grep you -r FILE True if file is readable by you. -w FILE True if the file is writable by you. -x FILE True if the file is executable by you. -O FILE True if the file is effectively owned by you. -G FILE True if the file is effectively owned by your group.
Likewise, for find -readable, something should be done. >>>>> "JY" == James Youngman <j...@gnu.org> writes: JY> On Wed, Jan 13, 2010 at 11:06 PM, <jida...@jidanni.org> wrote: >> -readable >> Matches files which are readable... >> Also mention "by the current user" I suppose.
