[Announce] rwx-calc for N900
 

Rwx-calc is a small utility for calculating file and directory permissions (ACL) as found on Unix/Linux like system, including the N900.

You can provide the absolute octal values, but also press on the individual permission to see the effect on the fly.

There is support for both landscape and portrait mode. The help screen will provide some additional info on the permissions if needed.

The package can be downloaded from the extras-devel repository.

Native version for SailfishOS can be found here: https://openrepos.net/content/ade/rwx-calc

Ah, yes, it helps the users who don't understand system of Linux permissions. Like me. I can write 'ls -lah' or 'chmod 0666' or 'chmod 0777', but anything more complex requires a dictionary.
Best wishes.

No problem, you can vote here from now: http://maemo.org/packages/package_in...-calc/0.0.1-1/

Never had any bug reports, so it is not used, or ready for extras-testing ;)
