KPSEACCESS(1)						      General Commands Manual						     KPSEACCESS(1)

NAME
       kpseaccess - determine whether a file can be accessed

SYNOPSIS
       kpseaccess mode file

DESCRIPTION
       Exit  successfully if file can be accessed with the specified mode.  The mode is an optional dash (`-') followed by zero or more letters of
       rwx, where r is for readable, w is for writable, and x is for executable.

       The difference between kpseaccess and test is that the latter looks at the permission bits, while the former  checks  using  the  access(2)
       system call.  This makes a difference when file systems have been mounted read-only.

OPTIONS
       kpseaccess accepts the following options:

       --help Print help message and exit.

       --version
	      Print version information and exit.
