NAME

       IO::Mode - File modes

SYNOPSIS

       IO::Mode< >

     =    Mode([IO::Permission]    ownerperms,[IO::Permission]    groupperms,[IO::Permission]   othersperms,Bool
     socket,Bool symlink,Bool regular,Bool block,Bool dir,Bool chardev,Bool  fifo,Bool  setUID,Bool  setGID,Bool
     sticky)

DESCRIPTION

       This describes the mode of the file. The first three fields describe the access IO.Permission (3kaya) for
       the  file  owner,  the file group, and others, while the remaining fields state whether a particular file
       property is true.

       This data type mostly applies to the filesystems normally found on POSIX systems. On  Windows,  the  file
       permission  and  type  model  is  somewhat  different,  so  this data type may not hold especially useful
       information there.
