[NTLUG:Discuss] how do I get a list of files that are set read-only?

[Fred James]

I am reading that like it would be:
find <path> -type f -perm 444 -print
or
find <path> -type f -perm +444 -print
I think - the first seems like that should mean an exact match (i.e. 
-r--r--r--), and the second seems like it should match if any of the 
sets are r--.  Of course I have never tried - have you tried either of 
those?
