The reference guide has a section on the default values for owner, group, and mode, but leaves them blank. Can I assume them to be the same as for the 'install' binary?
According to 'man install', the default mode is 0755, regardless of the type of the file. So doing 'xinstall -m 0755 …' is redundant, but if I wanted to keep the execute bit off, then I need to say "-m 0644"?
