hi,
i want to set Umask for my newly created files or modified files with execute permissions.
if i iset umask 002 ,iam not able to see execute permissions for script files,but if i create new directories,iam gettin 'X' permission.
I want to have 'X' permission for the ordinary files also,when i create or modify.pls let me know what umask setting i need to give for this,and to make this change permenent where do i need to set the setting.
Thanks for your help!!

Default permissions in UNIX are as follows:

For files 666, Directory: 777, if you set umask to 0 still you can't get default executable permissions on each file because it'll give you 666 permissions whichi is: -rw-rw-rw.

This is due to security reasons. I dont think so you'll be able to acheive your target in Linux/Unix systems.

so everytime after creating or modifying a file ,do i need to give "X" permissions manually using chmod?
if i have lot of files??

Yes, you have to do that, for many files try to use wildcards, suppose you have many .scr files which you want to make executable you could use Regards,
