Re: ls -l

the "d" means the directory. the first rwx is for the "owner" and means he
has complete control over reading, writing and executing. The next three,
r-x is for the "group", and means they can read the file and execute it but
not modify it, and the last is for the "anyone" category and means that
they too can only read and execute the file.
