Make a file Executable
Unlike Windows, Linux does not have files that are executable, all files can have this attribute. So for example, I have a python file that is just a text file, and I will to be able to run this from the command line, If I look at the file using ls -al:
ls -al
I will see something like this:
"-rw-r--r-- 1 pi pi 4452 Jul 25 17:46 40x2_LCD.py"
The permissions for this file are:
"-rw-r--r--"
This file has three sets of permissions:
User -rw | Group -r- | Others r--
