§ Permission bits reference

• I always forget the precise encoding of permissions, so I mkae a cheat sheet to remember what's what. It's read,write,execute which have values 2^2, 2^1, 2^0.

+-----+---+--------------------------+
| rwx | 7 | Read, write and execute  |
| rw- | 6 | Read, write              |
| r-x | 5 | Read, and execute        |
| r-- | 4 | Read,                    |
| -wx | 3 | Write and execute        |
| -w- | 2 | Write                    |
| --x | 1 | Execute                  |
| --- | 0 | no permissions           |
