NAME
       mkdirs - make directories

SYNOPSIS
       mkdirs [ -o owner ] [ -g group ] [ -m mode ] dir_paths

DESCRIPTION
       Mkdirs	creates	 the  directories  specified  in  each	dir_path,  and
       optionally sets owner, group, and mode  for  the	 created  directories.
       Mkdirs requires write permission in the parent directory.

       Unlike  mkdir, mkdirs creates all non-existent directories specified in
       each dir_path.  For example, the following command  creates  both  new-
       dir-1 and new-dir-2:

	    mkdirs ~/new-dir-1/new-dir-2

       The  mode  of the created directories is determined by the value of the
       mode argument, which may be absolute or symbolic (see chmod(1) for  the
       correct	syntax),  or by the current umask(2) value if no mode argument
       is  specified.	Only  modes  of	 directories  created  by  mkdirs  are
       affected;  modes	 of  existing directories specified in the dir_path do
       not change.

SEE ALSO
       mkdir(1), rmdir(1), chmod(1), umask(2)
