NAME
       mkdir - make a directory

SYNOPSIS
       mkdir [ -p ] [ dirname ...  ]

DESCRIPTION
       Mkdir  creates  the specified directories. It requires write permission
       in the parent directory.

       The -p option causes mkdir to create the whole path dirname,  including
       any  missing  parent  directories; it also will not complain if dirname
       already exists and is a directory.

       The new directories are created with permissions	 starting  with	 8r777
       but  masked  with  the permissions of the parent directory according to
       the procedure followed by sys-open(2).	For  example,  if  the	parent
       directory  lacks	 write permission for group and has no permissions for
       others, so will the newly created directory.

SOURCE
       /appl/cmd/mkdir.b

SEE ALSO
       chmod(1), cd(1), rm(1), sys-open(2)

DIAGNOSTICS
       If any directory cannot be created successfully, mkdir prints  a	 warn‐
       ing,  and continues with any remaining directories, but returns "error"
       exit status at the end.
