If the permissions on a file were set so that everyone could read from or write to the file, how would that be represented symbolically

Question

If the permissions on a file were set so that everyone could read from or write to the file, how would that be represented symbolically (within the output of an 'ls -l' command)?

You mean like `rw-rw-rw-` or 0666? – sawdust Sep 27 '14 at 06:09 — sawdust, Sep 27 '14 at 06:09

I don't know what you mean by "symbolically", but they are represented in various tools in various ways:

See man chmod for more information.
