Just FYI on what other unices might do: HP-UX has "context dependent files" (mainly for their clustered environment). On our veritable HP-UX 9.05 box, I can do this:
islhp7 #~# mkdir cfile islhp7 #~# chmod +H cfile islhp7 #~# ls cfile cfile not found islhp7 #~# cd cfile+ islhp7 #/cfile+# echo hi >default islhp7 #/cfile+# cd islhp7 #~# cat cfile hi islhp7 #~# ls -ld c* -rw------- 1 root root 3 Aug 14 12:41 cfile islhp7 #~# ls -ld cfile+ drws------ 2 root root 1024 Aug 14 12:42 cfile+/
This is used to have different file contents for different nodes of a cluster, breaks tar and a lot of other tools and is generally considered a broken and useless feature ;)
(btw, you can do it as normal user as well)
