I've been wondering about it ever since I noticed that many dir permissions in AAT have a 't' where one would normally expect an 'x' for 'others'.
man chmod 't' is "save program text on swap device"
I've never seen a 't' before and man's explanation doesn't help me understand it.
Can anyone shed some light on 't' usage and explain why its helpful/needed for AAT ?

/backup
/config
/templates_c
It was that way right after I tar zxvf the aatrade20 tar.gz file.
Same 3 dirs have 't' in AAT v.014.1 also.

Nothing on my end. All directories were tared up the same way. Since those directories are directories the admin had to manually set to writable before you can even run the create_universe.php I would say something they did in chmoding them caused it.
