I have tried some variations and I am stuck. I have read through the forums and I'm still unsure where my mistake is. Could I pm someone with what I've got?

I'm putting in:

$ chmod [options] dir/filename $ rm dir/filename $ rm dir/filename

I have read several threads and I see consistency for the chmod so I think I have that right. Does this actually interpret the commands or is it basically just fixed text strings? I don't know what I'm missing and would really appreciate some help.

I read that it should be a+x for this challenge. Someone said that it really should have been a+w to give write permissions not just exectute. I have been using the a+x. I tried the a+w and had the same failed result. I have also made sure that my spelling and case match. I saw the files in the directory. I tried the logs.txt file and the _ file. I also tried the other file with no extension. At this point I think I know which files I'm just not sure if I'm missing an argument in the rm commands and if the chmod is correct.

Thanks for any help
