I haven't been able to find any file mask specific to > Informix. Your problem is that you are using i4gl. The i4gl program leaves the executable permissions in that horrible state you are refering to. What you should be using is "make" and "c4gl". By using c4gl, your executable permissions will be altered as per your umask. DAS -- David A.
