I just had a quick trawl through the old command list and couldn't see
anything that gave me something that chmod would accept.
What's the obvious thing I'm missing?

1. Seeking KHow do I get the bit value of a file's file access permissions?
You can use the chmod command to change the file access permissions.
But, is there a command that will let me READ the file permissions of a
file?
What I want to do is copy and update of a file over from one location to
another, but preserve the file permissions of the OLD file and transfer
them to the new.
If I can get ahold of a command that allows me to display/read the file
permissions of a file, this is easy.
Thanks again for any help you can provide.
