The original question was about what some software did on Windows. That cannot be deemed germane here even some of us knew the answer.

Randall, That was not the original question. Observe;

This is not a SuSE question .. more of a UNIX question. I have encountered a output from a ls -l command that i have ever seen before ...

He states that he has a *nix question.

libros% ls -l qt* -rw-rw-rw-+ 1 dog wheel 75633 Aug 24 2004 qtvoke.exe Can anyone tell me what the 11th bit with the + is?

He pointedly states that question about "ls" and, unbeknownst to him, an acl attribute.

This is a from a bash shell running on a Windoze system. The result is that I cannot delete the file with even a "rm -f". I have changed the premissions

to 666 using chmod ......... no cigar.

He then states that he is using a bash shell in a windows environment, but he then asks how to remove the file using "rm" His question is not unique to bash running on windows. It is, again, about Linux commands. At any rate, I just noticed that John posted something foolish to this list, so this thread, apparently, was all in vane. No good deed goes unpunished. Just taking note that Linux questions should be answered here. Peace. ~James
