The following script (I think) echoes the name of all files off the
current directory that are text and have no executable bits set. I
didn't test it that rigorously, so YMMV.
------------ snip snip snip ------------
#!/bin/sh
list=`find . \( -type f -and \! -perm -001 \
-and \! -perm -010 -and \! -perm -100 \) -print`
for file in $list
do
if { file $file | grep -i text 2>&1 >/dev/null; }
then
echo $file
fi
done
------------ snip snip snip ------------
Don't count on running this too often, though, cuz it is Slower Than
Windows (TM).
HTH,
Lucas
