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.
