Hehe,
Looks like your due for the good old `man bash', brace yourself,
its quite a read
but it wont take you all weekend ;-)

chmod 777 *
for i in `find . -maxdepth 1`; do chmod 777 $i; done
chmod 777 `find . -maxdepth 1`
Or recursivly
chmod 777 -R .
for i in `find . `; do chmod 777 $i; done
chmod 777 `find . `
