Permissions and dates

Permissions (A)

A changes the permissions of the file under the cursor (Ctrl+A: of the tagged files), in octal: 644, 755. Alt+A works like Ctrl+A.

On Windows, A edits the attributes R, H, S and A, as in ZTreeWin: RA sets exactly those, +H -A turns some on or off. The file list shows them as r-sa. See Windows.

New date (N)

N changes the modification date of the file or directory (Ctrl+N: of the tagged files). The prompt comes filled with the current date in your format; it also accepts now and today. With only the date (no HH:MM), each file keeps its own time of day. Symbolic links are skipped (the date would change that of the file they point to).

The date format is set on page 1 of the configuration.
