I don't know if this is the proper way to advise you of possible errors 
in the documentation, but ...

> http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/permissions.html

A comma separated list can be provided when more than one set of changes 
to a file must be made. For example the following command will remove 
the group and "world" write permission on /FILE/, then it adds the 
execute permissions for everyone:
       ^^^^^

% chmod go-w,a+x /FILE

Should not this read "other" ?
