KPSESTAT(1)

🎀 NAME 🎀

okay so bestie, welcome to the KPSESTAT(1) page from the General Commands Manual — the command is kpsestat, and its whole main-character job is: compute octal mode from mode of existing file. no cap. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

kpsestat mode file

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

kpsestat prints the octal permission of file modified according to mode on standard output. The mode parameter accepts a subset of the symbolic permissions accepted by chmod(1). Use = as the mode to obtain the unchanged permissions.

Like, that’s the whole vibe: you give it a mode and a file, and it prints that octal permission on standard output. The mode situation is a subset of what chmod(1) accepts symbolically — so not the whole menu, bestie. And if you want the permissions exactly as they already are, use = for mode. slay. ✨

💖 OPTIONS 💖

kpsestat accepts the following options:

• --help — print help message and exit. 🫶
• --version — print version information and exit. 🎀

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

• chmod(1) — go look, iykyk 🌈
