file permissions

Hi!

Is there any shell parameter that I can use in my script to check the file-permissions I have in the currect directory!?

The history behind is: My script tries to create some log files in the folder and I want to see whether I have enough permissions to do that. And exit in case I dont have.

currently I create a temp file using touch command, and check the return code ($?) of that command, and exit if it is non-zero, and remove the temp file if zero. This is a unwanted process!!

Thanks in advance,

Mohan.
