- chall
-
- By Brian E. Litzinger
-
- You can do what you wish with this code. Just don't make a profit
- off of it.
-
- The following program is just a useless waste of your time, so I'd
- just /bin/rm it and go one with more useful endeavours.
-
- I've been accused of posting useless programs in the past, so I think
- you should seriously re-consider just tossing this code out.
-
- There really are better ways to do these things. This whole mess
- is just a waste of network bandwidth and I'm surprised the moderator
- actually let it slip through.
-
- If you still want to use this program its a program using getopts that
- lets you combine chmod, chown, and chgrp into one command called chall.
-
- It doesn't follow any of the BSD combined chown/grp functionality. I'm
- a System V'er after all. It does have one saving grace though, you
- can maintain a personal .chall file in your home directory with macros
- in it like 'man:bin:bin:444' which means you can say
- chall -x man foobar
- and foobar will be chmod 444 foobar, chown bin foobar, chgrp bin foobar.
-
- See the man page for more information. It's too bad it doesn't
- recursively decend directories, and it's too bad it doesn't use
- the +rw ... stuff of BSD. The latter I actually tried, but all those
- different options, there just didn't seem to be away to do it.
