Comment	> When a new file is created in VMS (e.g. using CREATE, or by > FTP-putting the file), the access rights are set based on > 1) the default process protection (the "umask") - see SHOW PROT, > 2) the directory's ACL > the latter taking precedence. > > It seems that vim does not do step 2, i.e. it does not consult the > directory's ACL, and only checks the umask. > > As a result, files freshly created using vim may have different > protection settings than files created with other editors. > > Example: > $ set prot=w /default > $ sh prot > SYSTEM=RWED, OWNER=RWED, GROUP=RE, WORLD=NO ACCESS > $ cre/dir [.abc] > $ set secu []abc.dir > /delete=all/acl=(default_protection,s:rwed,o:rwed,g:r,w:r) > $ dir/acl abc.dir > ... > ABC.DIR;1 > (DEFAULT_PROTECTION,SYSTEM:RWED,OWNER:RWED,GROUP:RE,WORLD:RE) > ... > $ set def [.abc] > $ create novim.txt > [ctrl-z to end input] > $ vim vim.txt > [:wq in vim] > $ dir/prot > ... > NOVIM.TXT;1 (RWED,RWED,RE,RE) > VIM.TXT;1 (RWD,RWD,R,) > ... > > As seen, the files have different protection rights set up: > - NOVIM.TXT is world-readable, because it respects the default ACLs > of ABC.DIR > - VIM.TXT is world-unreadable, because vim only consulted the default > protection (as seen in SHOW PROT) > > I guess this is not correct.
