The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:

  modid:       File::Stat::ModeString
  DSLIP:       bdpfg
  description: conversion stat(2) mode to/from string
  userid:      FEDOROV (Dmitry Fedorov)
  chapterid:   10 (File_Names_Systems_Locking)
  communities:

  similar:
    Stat::lsMode

  rationale:

    This module provides a few functions for conversion between binary
    and literal representations of file mode bits, including file type.

    All of them use only symbolic constants for mode bits from
    File::Stat::Bits.

    In possible relations between Stat::lsMode and this module,
    Stat::lsMode is higher level. This module can provide portable base
    functions for lsMode.

    Unlike Stat::lsMode, there is no "novice mode" and only full mode
    representation allowed (file type is not optional).

    This module [will be] used in scripts like archivers which are
    needed portable string representation of file attributes.
