Mode1.0
Converts symbolic permissions into their Octal equivalent.

Mode converts from standard symbolic permissions (rwxrwxrwx) into its Octal equivalent (755, 644, etc.). Given a file(s), 'mode' prints this conversion to your screen. This is a very useful tool for those not wanting to bother with permission math, or for those needing to scan files or directories for permission security. Makes chmod'ing much simpler.

I have always had a hard time with permissions and I do a lot with the web and cgi and this helps a lot! I only just downloaded it but already its really cool! Great job here, It makes working with scripts a LOT easier, because you just have to glance to see if you have everything set correctly!

This program is what ls should be. why should we have to convert between chmod permissions and the ones listed in ls in our heads??? i just installed it and am happy!!!!!
