yes, but this would make it system wide. while i would like this setting
only for my home directory that sits in a separate ext3 partition.
if i do it system wide by changing umask the only way for me to be able
to read system files without using sudo would be adding myself to group
root.
being new to linux i'm not sure whether it is save adding myself to group
root.
any suggestions, please?
