batch processing

[jrev]

Hello,

I have on a USB key a number of files to convert to read/write permission.

I do for each file
chmod 777 file_name

How can I process all files in one command ?

Hope you get my point
Thanks

just use recursive


chmod -R 777 /directory/name

[jrev]

As I cannot name all folders I had to type
# chmod -Rv 777 /directory/*

Thanks for your answer
