I have started down both paths that you recommend only to choke.
For one, the octal conversion for pattern matching might be a high
overhead for a program; every file it would have to figure out the
octal? I think I have decided to just match the whole expression.
I.E. If ( "-rwxrw-r--" -eq "-rw-r--r--)....
Yes, you can do without converting permission strings into equivalent
octal representations. I needed that in my script because the missing rest
part of that script, which I will work on in future, deals with
*resetting* the permissions of files whose permissions look warped.
