In the absence of any replies from the S3cmd forum, I managed to use a command line hack to get the ACL status of all files in a bucket with this:
I tried parsing the whole bucket with an "astrix" as an option , but that didn't work with version 1.0.1 or 1.0.5 of S3cmd.
s3cmd -c ~/.s3cfg_uk2 ls s3://test-hubs/ | awk '{print $4}' | sed 's/s3\:\/\/test-hubs\///g' | xargs -I file s3cmd -c ~/.s3cfg_uk2 info s3://test-hubs/file
This is all on one line - and the xargs option is a capitol "i" and not an "el" as it appears here ;-) If anyone can see how to refactor this to make it more efficient be my guest, but it works.
Or indeed answer my original question with a snappy command line option to s3cmd ;-)
If you want to see if there is "anyone" access to a file you will see "anon" as the ACL setting , so you can search on that if you want to look for globally available files - which is what I wanted to do.
