Does anyone actually know how to pronounce
chmod
?Yep! It's pronounced "chmod"
Had it been Sean Connery in the picture as some had suggested, his pronunciation would've been:
"Shmod, Shamesh Shmod."
But as to how it's actually pronounced: No clue. Our server admins call it "See age mod" - but I'm not too sure they are the authority on pronouncing stuff right. :-P
Rhymes with "SCMODS" from Blues Brothers.
