 +======Synopsis:======
 +$__chmod__(%%<file>%% <mode>)
 +
 +======Technical:======
 +The %%<file>%% argument is a [[what is a word|dword]] which is different from
 +most functions.
 +
 +This function provides an interface to the Unix system call chmod(2).  It
 +applies the given mode to the file specified.  Refer to your Unix system
 +manual for more information (usually "man 2 chmod").  The mode must be in
 +numeric format.
 +
 +======Practical:======
 +This function is used to change the access permissions on a given file.
 +A discussion of Unix file permissions is beyond the scope of this
 +document; refer to your system's manual page for chmod(1) or chmod(2).
 +
 +======Returns:======
 +<file>
 +-1   error
 +0    permissions changed successfully
 +</file>
