mkdir - make a directory

SYNOPSIS

mkdir [ -p ] dirname...

DESCRIPTION

mkdir creates directories. Standard entries, `.', for the directory itself, and `..' for its parent, are made automatically.

The -p flag allows missing parent directories to be created as needed.

With the exception of the set-gid bit, the current umask.2v setting determines the mode in which directories are created. The new directory inherits the set-gid bit of the parent directory. Modes may be modified after creation by using chmod.1v

mkdir requires write permission in the parent directory.

SEE ALSO

chmod.1v rm.1 mkdir.2v umask.2v
