"Do you begin to see, then, what kind of world we are creating? It is the exact opposite of the stupid hedonistic Utopias that the old reformers imagined. A world of fear and treachery and torment, a world of trampling and being trampled upon, a world which will grow not less but more merciless as it refines itself. Progress in our world will be progress toward more pain." -George Orwell, 1984

That was actually pretty educational for me. I use totally different commands to chown, chgrp, chmod, etc. That's one of the best things about GNU/Linux... CHOICES, BABY! CHOICES!

I always use -v option on chown, like to see some output.

Nice article. I've used most of these but always used chgrp to change group, and chown to change users and group together. Never considered group alone could be changed with chown.
