Describe the bug

Many files in your repository, which are not meant for execution, have execution permission set.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

  1. git clone https://github.com/jjwbruijn/OpenEPaperLink.git
  2. cd OpenEPaperLink
  3. ls -l
  4. See that many files not meant for execution have execution permission set:
    • oepl-definitions.h
    • oepl-esp-ap-proto.h
    • oepl-proto.h
    • tag_types.h
    • Many more in sub directories!

Expected behavior

Execution permission only for directories and files meant for execution (e.g. shell scripts)

Terribly sorry. This comes from pure laziness. chmod 777. I might fix some of this stuff in future pushes, but I wouldn't bet the house.
