requested permissions

When you click the "Install" button on the left-hand side, the market will show you a dialog with the application's requested permissions.

LEO: And there is a log, there's a program that you get when you root a phone called Superuser that gives a log of all apps that have requested permissions and what permissions they've requested and so forth.

For example, when using UNIX and GNU versions of chmod to set the permissions of a file, and symbolic notation is used, and no user is specified, then the mask is applied to the requested permissions before they are applied to the file.
