 NAME
      access - determine accessibility of a file

 SYNOPSIS
      INTEGER*4 function access (name, mode)
      character*(*) name, mode

 DESCRIPTION
      Access checks the given file, name, for accessibility with respect to
      the caller according to mode. Mode may include in any order and in any
      combination one or more of:
                   r      test for read permission
                   w      test for write permission
                   x      test for execute permission
                (blank)   test for existence

      An error code is returned if either argument is illegal, or if the
      file cannot be accessed in all of the specified modes.  0 is returned
      if the specified access would be successful.
