2007-10-22chattr: provide an exit code in case of failure and add -f flagTheodore Ts'o1-3/+4
Fix chattr so that if there are errors, it will report it via a non-zero exit code. It will now explicitly give errors when attempting to set files that are not files or directories (which are currently not supported under Linux). The -f flag will suppress error messages from being printed, although the exit status will still be non-zero.
