Setpermissions is a little Desktop applet to adjust the filepermissions, modification date and MIME type of your files. It replicates what you do when you right-click on a file in Tracker, select Get Info and click on the permissions tab, but setpermissions takes fewer mouseclicks recurses into folders (but see below) accepts files and folders via drag-and-drop If you have downloaded old BeOS archives or programs from SourceForge you are sooner or later going to come across the message "Could not open XYZ. The file is mistakenly marked as executable. Should this be fixed?" If it is just the one file you just click "Proceed". But what if there are twenty of them? With Setpermissions, you can load the entire folder, make all files in it readable, writable and non-executable with three clicks, then drop the actual program file onto Setpermissions and make that executable again. Setpermissions does not distinguish between "owner", "group" and "other" permissions - each of the top six buttons will change ALL three. I may revisit that if Haiku ever goes multi-user, but for a single-user OS, the whole threefold scheme is frankly overkill. I have also seen files with improbably early date-stamps on them. A file last modified in 1963? Really? Setpermissions lets you set a file or all files in a folder to a accessed/modified datestamp of NOW. Finally, Setpermissions lets you do a forced MIME type recognition on a file or a folder. This is probably the least useful function, since Tracker's "Identify" function does this quite well. But I had space left for one button and now you can do this in the same interface.
