NAME

dosmkdir − make a DOS directory

SYNOPSIS

dosmkdir [-u] device:directory ... 

DESCRIPTION

dosmkdir is the DOS counterpart of the mkdir command (see mkdir(1)). It creates specified directories. The standard entries, .  for the directory itself and ..  for its parent, are made automatically. 

There is one option:

-u Disable argument case conversion.  In the absence of this option, all DOS file names are converted to uppercase. 

A DOS file name is recognized by the presence of an embedded colon (:) delimiter; see dosif(4) for DOS file naming conventions. 

DIAGNOSTICS

dosmkdir returns 0 if all directories were successfully created.  Otherwise, it prints a message to standard error and returns non-zero. 

EXAMPLES

Create an empty subdirectory named numbers under the directory /math/lib on the device accessed through HP-UX special file /dev/rfd9122:

dosmkdir /dev/rfd9122:/math/lib/numbers
