Highlight directories in path with execute permission for others
Hi all, I'm trying to make a script that takes at the most one argument and lists all directories in the path in a special format:
UserGroupOtherFilename
rwx r-- r-x \
rwx r-x r-- home
This is my code as it is right now:
Code:
if [ $# -gt 1 ]
then
echo 'Usage: dirpath [ dir-name ]' 1>&2
exit 1
fi
if [ $# = 1 ]
then
if [ ! -d $1 ]
then
echo "dirpath: $1 is not a valid directory name"
exit 1
fi
cd $1
fi
echo " Owner Group Other Filename"
echo " ----- ----- ----- --------"
pathnow="/$(pwd | sed 's/\// /g')"
for dirs in $pathnow
do
cd $dirs
if [ $(ls -ld . | cut -c10) != 'x' ]
then
tput smso
fi
echo -n `ls -ld . | cut -c1`
echo -n ' '
echo -n `ls -ld . | cut -c2`
echo -n ' '
echo -n `ls -ld . | cut -c3`
echo -n ' '
echo -n `ls -ld . | cut -c4`
echo -n ' '
echo -n `ls -ld . | cut -c5`
echo -n ' '
echo -n `ls -ld . | cut -c6`
echo -n ' '
echo -n `ls -ld . | cut -c7`
echo -n ' '
echo -n `ls -ld . | cut -c8`
echo -n ' '
echo -n `ls -ld . | cut -c9`
echo -n ' '
echo -n `ls -ld . | cut -c10`
echo " $dirs"
tput rmso
done
exit 0
This is what I get when I run my script:
dirpath ~/BTP100
Owner Group Other Filename
----- ----- ----- --------
d r w x r - x r - x /
d r w x r - x r - x home
d r w x - - x - - x drey5
As you can see aren't there as I want them and the directory BTP100 isn't listed. Also, directories that have execute permission for others aren't being highlighted.
There's far more wrong with your script than it not printing in color... Using 'cut' to get a single character, 10 times in a row, is roughly 2,000 times slower than using shell builtins.
I have searched this quite a long time but couldn't find the right method for me to use. I need to assign read write permission to the user for specific directories and it's sub directories and files. I do not want to use ACL. This is for Solaris. Please help. (1 Reply)
Hi All,
What is the use of execute permission for a folder.
I know "for execute a file(script file) we have to provide execute permission to that respective file".But what is the use to give execute permission to folder.Is it equal to read permission ?
