.SH NAME
kpseaccess \- determine whether a file can be accessed
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B kpseaccess
.I [-rwx]
.I file
.\"=====================================================================
.SH DESCRIPTION
Exit successfully if
.I file
can be accessed with the specified mode.
The mode is one or more letters of
.IR rwx ,
where
.I r
is for readable,
.I w
is for writable, and
.I x
is for executable.
.PP
The difference between
.B kpseaccess
and
.B test
is that the latter looks at the permission bits, while the former
checks using the
.BR access (2)
system call. This makes a difference when file systems have been
mounted read-only.
.\"=====================================================================
.SH OPTIONS
.B kpseaccess
accepts the following additional options:
.TP
.B --help
.rb
Print help message and exit.
.TP
.B --version
.rb
Print version information and exit.
