Dear forum,
I need to give write access to a file, to all users of the Mac. I know this can be done using a shell command, but is there perhaps a built-in LiveCode function or command to do this?
Thank you
Can LiveCode set file permissions?

Sorry, no build-in command, you need to use SHELL.

To clarify, both are right: yes, a shell command is used to change file permissions, and yes, LC includes a function named "shell" to let you execute that from within LiveCode.

Thank you, Klaus and Richard.
I will use LiveCode's shell function.
