Rwx-calc is a small utility for calculating file and directory permissions as found on Unix/Linux like system, including the Jolla.

You can provide the absolute octal values, but also press on the individual permission to see the effect on the fly.

The help screen will provide some additional info on the permissions if needed.

Thanks for this app. As a total novice user of Linux anything, this has given me an understanding of how permissions are created, thanks again.

Thanks.

Lovely Idea!

Two minor remarks:

I would but some margin left and right in the help page.
And I would remove the pulley like separators from the about page as they confuse

Now, originally an app is made to solve one problem only. Perfectly. On the other hand - app functionality shouldn't be limited by it's NAME. Should it? :-)

It would not fit in an app called rwx-calc :-) But an app to do some IP calculations would not be that hard.

Good work, sailor. How about some more crazy calculations? Network (ipv4, ipv6), aspect ratio, gear ratio - all that stuff you'll never find in a regular calculator-app!? :-D
