That would work for basic access rights but not for the s,S,t an T characters that denote sticky bits and set[ug]ids...
This should also work for those cases if the stat command is present...:
Code:
ls -l |
{
read total
echo $total
while read -r a b c d e f g h
do
printf "%4s %3d %8s %8s %6d %s %s %s\n" "$(stat -c "%a" "${h% -> *}")" "$b" "$c" "$d" "$e" "$f" "$g" "$h"
done
}
albeit a bit slow..

I'm on hp-unix. I would like a variable to hold the last change date of a file. I looked at the man pages for stat, but I don't see any examples and can't get the syntax right. Can anyone help me? Thank you. (2 Replies)

To list file permission/access right in octal format, linux has a command 'stat'. For example, we can use the followin -
stat -c %a `find . -type f
Is there any equivalent command in AIX and HP-UX to give the same result as linux 'stat' command?
Please advice. (3 Replies)
i know this command does not exist in solaris. however, i read somewhere on this forum that basically everything the stat command provides in other oses can be obtained in solaris using the ls command.
i've searched the forum for a while now and i cant find the thread. does anyone know about... (1 Reply)
Die to what all operations, the "Modify" and "Change" values of stat output changes for a file.
I found, during editing a file, Change and Modify alters. When chmod'ing Change alters, while Modify doesnot alters. Is there more situations where these changes? (1 Reply)

tcl_stat
Tcl_Access(3) Tcl Library Procedures Tcl_Access(3)__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
Tcl_Access, Tcl_Stat - check file permissions and other attributes
SYNOPSIS
#include <tcl.h>
int
Tcl_Access(path, mode)
int
Tcl_Stat(path, statPtr)
ARGUMENTS
char *path (in) Native name of the file to check the attributes of.
int mode (in) Mask consisting of one or more of R_OK, W_OK, X_OK and F_OK. R_OK, W_OK and X_OK request checking
whether the file exists and has read, write and execute permissions, respectively. F_OK just
requests checking for the existence of the file.
struct stat *statPtr (out) The structure that contains the result.
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
As of Tcl 8.4, the object-based APIs Tcl_FSAccess and Tcl_FSStat should be used in preference to Tcl_Access and Tcl_Stat, wherever possi-
ble.
There are two reasons for calling Tcl_Access and Tcl_Stat rather than calling system level functions access and stat directly. First, the
Windows implementation of both functions fixes some bugs in the system level calls. Second, both Tcl_Access and Tcl_Stat (as well as
Tcl_OpenFileChannelProc) hook into a linked list of functions. This allows the possibility to reroute file access to alternative media or
access methods.
Tcl_Access checks whether the process would be allowed to read, write or test for existence of the file (or other file system object) whose
name is pathname. If pathname is a symbolic link on Unix, then permissions of the file referred by this symbolic link are tested.
On success (all requested permissions granted), zero is returned. On error (at least one bit in mode asked for a permission that is
denied, or some other error occurred), -1 is returned.
Tcl_Stat fills the stat structure statPtr with information about the specified file. You do not need any access rights to the file to get
this information but you need search rights to all directories named in the path leading to the file. The stat structure includes info
regarding device, inode (always 0 on Windows), privilege mode, nlink (always 1 on Windows), user id (always 0 on Windows), group id (always
0 on Windows), rdev (same as device on Windows), size, last access time, last modification time, and creation time.
If path exists, Tcl_Stat returns 0 and the stat structure is filled with data. Otherwise, -1 is returned, and no stat info is given.
