Hi,
I often have the case where I want to open up an area of a
directory to group access. However I am using SCCS and have many files
that should remain read only. A mindless
chmod -R g+w .
Trashes the sanctity of SCCS by making some things group writable
while they aren't user writable.
How can I cleanly execute this command?
awk/sed/sh/find (or whatever) accepted
Please no PERL or CSH.
SunOS4.1 (but please don't make it specific to that platform)
