If you're on a platform that supports the syntax, a minute change will make it run much faster by putting as many arguments into chmod at once as it safely allows:
Code:
find /thisdirectory -type f -exec chmod o-w '{}' '+'

Ah thanks, I'll just use -maxdepth 1 to get files only immediately under it.

PharFileInfo::chmod - Sets file-specific permission bits

SYNOPSIS
public void PharFileInfo::chmod (int $permissions) DESCRIPTION
PharFileInfo.chmod(3) allows setting of the executable file permissions bit, as well as read-only bits. Writeable bits are ignored, and set at runtime based on the phar.readonly INI variable. As with all functionality that modifies the contents of a phar, the phar.readonly INI variable must be off in order to succeed if the file is within a Phar archive. Files within PharData archives do not have this restriction. PARAMETERS
o $permissions - permissions (see chmod(3)) RETURN VALUES
No value is returned. EXAMPLES
Example #1 A PharFileInfo.chmod(3) example <?php // make sure it doesn't exist @unlink('brandnewphar.phar'); try { $p = new Phar('brandnewphar.phar', 0, 'brandnewphar.phar'); $p['file.sh'] = '#!/usr/local/lib/php <?php echo "hi"; ?>'; // set executable bit $p['file.sh']->chmod(0555); var_dump($p['file.sh']->isExecutable()); } catch (Exception $e) { echo 'Could not create/modify phar: ', $e; } ?> The above example will output: bool(true) PHP Documentation Group PHARFILEINFO.CHMOD(3)
