KPSEACCESS(1)		     General Commands Manual		   KPSEACCESS(1)

NAME
     kpseaccess - determine whether a file can be accessed

SYNOPSIS
     kpseaccess mode file

DESCRIPTION
     Exit  successfully  if  file  can be accessed with the specified mode.  The
     mode is an optional dash (`-') followed by zero or  more  letters	of  rwx,
     where r is for readable, w is for writable, and x is for executable.

     The  difference between kpseaccess and test is that the latter looks at the
     permission bits, while the former checks using the access(2)  system  call.
     This makes a difference when file systems have been mounted read-only.

OPTIONS
     kpseaccess accepts the following options:

     --help
	    Print help message and exit.

     --version
	    Print version information and exit.
