how do I display the file permissions using the terminal?
 
thats incorrect the command U provided lists directorys and hidden files I am after file permissions
 
File permissions are highlighed here:
Code:
$ls -al
[COLOR=red][b]-rwxr-xr-x[/b][/color]    1 User   None        11948 Jul 15 01:01 a.exe
Broken down, it means:
rwx User has read, write and execute
r-x Group has read and execute
r-x other (everyone else) also has read and execute.

why do you spend time answering this question?
i am not unfriendly, but this is the
'General UNIX discussion Forum'
and the ls-cmd is on side 3 of my unix book.

pardon to all, don't understanding me.

OK, perhaps i will be excluded from this forum :(

stefan: was ist 'colrm' ?
 
iribach,

Don't insult your responders if you want to get answers. That is exactly the answer 99% of the readers of this forum would have provided, including myself.

Section 3 of the unix man pages deal with programming interfaces and ls is a command line utility, documented in section 1.

You have not made yourself clear, the problem is yours.

 
One thing I will never understand is that a forum should be a source of help and support, but there are always people turning up to use it makeing arrogant and insulting comments about others (do they feel better after those posts???)

It's always been that way - any forum, bulletin board or USENET group you take have its own set of trolls. They come and go - sometimes even changing their identities: each circus has got its own set of clowns.

Learn to be entertained, not to be insuled and ignore (if you can).
