MKDIR(1)            UNIX Programmer's Manual             MKDIR(1)

NAME
     mkdir - make a directory

SYNOPSIS
     mkdir dirname ...

DESCRIPTION
     _M_k_d_i_r creates specified directories with mode 777.  This
     mode may be affected by the user's _u_m_a_s_k.  See _c_s_h(1).
     Standard entries, `.', for the directory itself, and `..'
     for its parent, are made automatically.

     _M_k_d_i_r requires write permission in the parent directory.

SEE ALSO
     rm(1)

DIAGNOSTICS
     _M_k_d_i_r returns exit code 0 if all directories were success-
     fully made.  Otherwise it prints a diagnostic and returns
     nonzero.
