Subject: Capital X mode not implemented
My chmod(1) man page describes a capital X mode http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/manual/html_node/Conditional- Executability.html#Conditional-Executability but this module doesn't seem to implement it $ chmod a+X foo $ perl -MFile::chmod -E 'chmod "a+X", shift' foo Unknown mode: a+X at -e line 1. I guess it's mostly useful when used recursively, but I think any input that makes sense to chmod(1) ought to make sense to File::chmod.

I'll try to get to this eventually, right now patches (that include tests) are welcome
