If +only an owner (a user name or numeric user ID) is given, that user is made the +owner of each given file, and the files' group is not changed. If the +owner is followed by a colon and a group name (or numeric group ID), +with no spaces between them, the group ownership of the files is +changed as well. If a colon but no group name follows the user name, +that user is made the owner of the files and the group of the files is +changed to that user's login group. If the colon and group are given, +but the owner is omitted, only the group of the files is changed; +in this case, +.B chown +performs the same function as +.BR chgrp . +If only a colon is given, or if the entire operand is empty, neither the +owner nor the group is changed. +.SH OPTIONS +[SEE ALSO] +chown(2) -- cgit v1.2.3
