If you didn't use the recursion flag this wouldn't be to bad
in hindsight I should have just changed into the directory directly first then used chmod without needing the full path. Or run the flag that asks you to confirm each transaction or dry run. I'm a much smarter idiot nowadays.
would that mean it doesn't affect anything other than top level files ?
Yea without the R flag it only does the file (and since folders are files in Unix...)
