chmod directories and files seperately

Is there a way to recursively chmod a directory with a certain set of permissions and the files in those directories with another set of permissions?

Maybe via a shell script. Check for the d or - to test if the ls -al item's a directory or not, and then chmod accordingly. Better might be chmod the lot recursively and then tweak the directory permissions.
