Subject: Change permissions of files to -xw +r for all other users
Date: Thu, 26 May 2005 18:44:36 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200505261844.36271.rhys@rhyshardwick.co.uk> (raw)

Hey there,

I know this may be a case of RTM, but I am getting confused on it.

I want to change the permissions of all the files in my home folder to read 
only for all users but myself, but to leave directories executable so that 
they can be opened.  I have had difficulty doing this for only other users, 
and have ended up -xw for myself as well, even tyring many variations of the 
-o tag.  Any help would be fantastic.
