NAME
kpseaccess - determine whether a file can be accessed
SYNOPSIS
kpseaccess [-rwx] file
DESCRIPTION
Exit successfully if file can be
accessed with the specified mode. The mode is one 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 (2)
system call. This makes a difference when file systems have been
mounted read-only.
OPTIONS
kpseaccess accepts the following additional
options:
- --help
- Print help message and exit.
- --version
- Print version information and exit.
