NAME              stat -- get file status

SYNOPSIS          stat name1

DESCRIPTION       stat gives several kinds of information about one or more
                  files:

                     i--number
                     access mode
                     number of links
                     owner
                     size in bytes
                     date and time of last modification
                     name (useful when several files are named)

                  All information is self--explanatory except the mode. The
                  mode is a six--character string whose characters mean the
                  following:

                     1   s: file is small (smaller than 4096 bytes)
                         l: file is large

                     2   d:    file is a directory
                         x:    file is executable
                         u:    set user ID on execution
                         --:   none of the above

                     3     r: owner can read
                         --: owner cannot read

                     4 w: owner can write
                        --: owner cannot write

                     5   r: non--owner can read
                         --: non--owner cannot read

                     6   w: non--owner can write
                         --: non--owner cannot write

                  The owner is almost always given in symbolic form; however
                  if he cannot be found in "/etc/uids" a number is given.

                  If the number of arguments to stat is not exactly 1 a
                  header is generated identifying the fields of the status
                  information.

FILES             /etc/uids

SEE ALSO          ls with the --1 option gives the same information as stat.

DIAGNOSTICS       "name?" for any error.

BUGS              none
