Re: -readable by who

Gentlemen, some of these are clearer than man test or (info "(coreutils) Access permission tests") bash$ help test|grep you -r FILETrue if file is readable by you. -w FILETrue if the file is writable by you. -x FILETrue if the file is executable by you.

-readable by who

-readable Matches files which are readable... Also mention "by the current user" I suppose. And perhaps mention a way to see if they are readable by the general public...
