# Many thanks to Marc Mims who found and fixed 3 bugs:

if ($ARGV[0]){
  #help text if argument is passed to script
  if ($ARGV[0] =~ /^(\?|help|-h|--help)$/) {
print <<'END';
  
  This script allows you to backup and restore file properties. It backups the 
  permissions, owners and groups of all files and folders including all subfolders. 
  IT DOES NOT BACKUP THE FILES AND FOLDERS THEMSELVES !!!

  Usage: ./allrights.pl  [DIR | OPTION]

  Examples: ./allrights.pl
            ./allrights.pl --help
            ./allrights.pl /folder1/folder2
            ./allrights.pl ./folder2

  DIR: 
  Directory were to start the backup (starting point of recursive descend)
  
  OPTIONS: 
  ?, help, -help, --help will display this help text
  
  Without parameter the starting point for the backup will be the current working directory	
	
	
  BACKUP
  ------
  Run the script including the path to the directory you want to backup or run it inside this
  directory without paramters. Two executable files will be created within this folder:
  
  permissions_backup.sh
  ownergroup_backup.sh
 
  Both are simple shell scripts which do not need Perl and can be run independently. 
  The program backups hidden files and hidden folders also. But note that symbolic links 
  will be ignored. If a symbolic link points to a file outside of the saved directory tree, 
  this file will remain unchanged too. 
  If a user name or group name does not exist any more in /etc/passwd or /etc/group the uid or 
  gid itself will be written into the backup files instead of the names. This happens if
  a group or user has been deleted, but files with these ids still exist.
    
	
  RESTORE
  -------
  You can run the two backup scripts independently. If you want to restore permissions 
  and owner/group just run both. In case you have removed some files since the last 
  backup, the script output will show you which files couldn't be found.

seriously, you need to start reading a Perl and a shell programming book.
