## Usage

- `Set()`, `Unset()` and other functions are works with `Mode` type.

- `SetFile()`, `UnsetFile()` and other `...File()` functions are works with `*os.File` type.

)

func main() {

	if err := filemode.SetPath("/path/to/file", filemode.ExecOther); err != nil {

		// Handle error

	}

	isSet, err := filemode.IsSetPath("/path/to/file", filemode.ExecOther)

	if err != nil {

		// Handle error

	}

	if !isSet {

		fmt.Printf("%s in not executable\n", "/path/to/file")

	}

}

```
