<h2>mkdir - Make directories</h2>
<strong>Synopsis</strong>
<p><strong>mkdir [-p] [-m</strong> <em>mode</em><strong>]</strong>
<em>directory ...</em></p>
<p><strong>Description</strong></p>
<p>The <strong>mkdir</strong> utility creates the directories named
as operands, in the order specified, using mode rwxrwxrwx (0777) as
modified by the current file creation mask.</p>
<p>The user must have write permission in the parent directory.</p>
<p><strong>Options</strong></p>
<dl>
<dt><strong>-m</strong></dt>
<dd>Set the file permission bits of the final created directory to
the specified <em>mode</em>. The mode argument can be in any of the
formats supported by the <a href="chmod.htm">chmod</a> command. If
a symbolic mode is specified, the operation characters + and - are
interpreted relative to an initial mode of "a=rwx".</dd>
<dt><strong>-p</strong></dt>
<dd>Create intermediate directories as required. If this option is
not specified, the full path prefix of each operand must already
exist. Intermediate directories are created with permission bits of
rwxrwxrwx (0777) as modified by the current file creation mask,
plus write and search permission for the owner.</dd>
</dl>
<p><strong>Exit Status</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>0 if successful</li>
<li>&gt;0 if an error occurred.</li>
