NAME
     mkdir - make directory command

SYNOPSIS
     mkdir [ mkdir_options ] [file]

DESCRIPTION
     Mkdir is used to make directories.  Directory names  can  be
     relative  or absolute.  This command extends the functional-
     ity of the built-in mkdir command in command.com.

OPTIONS
     The following  command  line  options  are  supported.   The
     options are not case sensitive, so /h is equivalent to /H.

     /p          If the parent directories of the  target  direc-
                 tory do not exist, then make them also.

     /h          Display a brief help message.

EXAMPLES
     mkdir sub.x

     The above example will create a  directory  in  the  current
     working directory by the name, sub.x.

     mkdir /P e:\dosx\mini\data

     This command will create a directory on the E drive as shown
     in  the  path.  If dosx and mini don't exist, then they will
     also be created.  This is the equivalent  of  the  following
     commands:

     mkdir e:\dosx
     mkdir e:\mini
     mkdir e:\data

BUGS
     This version of mkdir hasn't had any bugs reported.
