+# checkperms: ensure as best we can that a given file can only be
+# modified by the given user (or the superuser, naturally).  This
+# means checking file ownership and permissions all the way back to
+# the root directory.  Pass the file by its absolute path.
+
+# example invocation:
+
+# checkperms dkg /home/dkg/.monkeysphere/authorized_user_ids
+
+# return values: zero if we believe the file and path can only be
+# modified by the user.  non-zero otherwise.
+
+# see StrictModes in sshd_config(5) (and its implementation in
+# OpenSSH's secure_filename() in auth.c) for the initial
+# inspiration/rationale for this code.
