| 31 | The |
| 32 | .I mode |
| 33 | may be either a literal mask written in octal, where set bits correspond |

| 35 | in |
| 36 | .BR chmod (1) |
| 37 | style listing the mode bits to be preserved. (Other forms may be |
| 38 | acceptable: |
| 39 | .B with-umask |
| 40 | is currently a shell script, and uses |
| 41 | .BR /bin/sh 's |
| 42 | .B umask |
| 43 | built-in to do its work.) |
