Re: what umask?
3 digits: nnn for user, group, world (other)
Within each digit are three possible values which mush together:
0 = nothing
1 = eXecute
2 = Write
4 = Read
chmod uses these values to confir privelege so giving read-write to
owner but total lockout to group & world is
% chmod 600 file.foo
umask uses the values to *take away* specified privilege so umask of
007 takes away nothing (leaves rwx in effect) for user & group and
takes away rwx for other.
