If "not everything" is really "everything not", then $ ls -l Programs/PuTTY/ total 4 -rwxr----- 1 anrdaemon anrdaemon 899 2011-03-14 19:49 PuTTY-Settings.reg $ chmod -x,+X -R Programs $ ls -l Programs/PuTTY/ total 4 -rw-r----- 1 anrdaemon anrdaemon 899 2011-03-14 19:49 PuTTY-Settings.reg And ugo is dealt with through right umask. Which, in my case, is 0027 However, if your regular umask is different, you do need to use a script. -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@freemail.ru) 02.03.2012, <16:11> Sorry for my terrible english... -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
