Hi !
Try "man cut". You can use "ls -l" to see the rights for the file and "cut -c 2-10" to see the fields coresponding to access rights to that file. So, by piping the ls output to the cut input you can get something like what you need in your script...
Ex:
This will show you a string of 9 characters coresponding to the access rights of your test.sh file... You can find in the cut manual some details about this.
I hope this is what you needed...
Bye !

alter_group
ALTER GROUP(7) SQL Commands ALTER GROUP(7)NAME
ALTER GROUP - change role name or membership
SYNOPSIS
ALTER GROUP groupname ADD USER username [, ... ]
ALTER GROUP groupname DROP USER username [, ... ]
ALTER GROUP groupname RENAME TO newname
DESCRIPTION
ALTER GROUP changes the attributes of a user group. This is an obsolete command, though still accepted for backwards compatibility,
because groups (and users too) have been superseded by the more general concept of roles.
The first two variants add users to a group or remove them from a group. (Any role can play the part of either a ``user'' or a ``group''
for this purpose.) These variants are effectively equivalent to granting or revoking membership in the role named as the ``group''; so the
preferred way to do this is to use GRANT [grant(7)] or REVOKE [revoke(7)].
The third variant changes the name of the group. This is exactly equivalent to renaming the role with ALTER ROLE [alter_role(7)].
PARAMETERS
groupname
The name of the group (role) to modify.
username
Users (roles) that are to be added to or removed from the group. The users must already exist; ALTER GROUP does not create or drop
users.
newname
The new name of the group.
EXAMPLES
Add users to a group:
ALTER GROUP staff ADD USER karl, john;
Remove a user from a group:
ALTER GROUP workers DROP USER beth;
COMPATIBILITY
There is no ALTER GROUP statement in the SQL standard.
