NAME

emkdir - Creates empty ECFS directories

SYNOPSIS

emkdir [-p] [-m mode] newdir1 [...]

DESCRIPTION

Create the specified ECFS directories. This operation requires write permission in the parent directory.

OPTIONS

-p
creates all the non-existing parent directories first.
-m
specifies the octal mode (file permissions) to be used for newdir1, as per chmod(1).

DIAGNOSTICS

As with mkdir, error-handling under -p is generous, the interpretation being ``make sure this path exists''. In particular any errors in processing mode on the target newdir1 are ignored. Its pre-existence is also regarded as success.

EXAMPLES

emkdir ec:olddir/newdir
creates new directory 'newdir' under 'olddir' which must already exist.
emkdir -p ec:newdir1/newdir2
creates newdir2, and also 'newdir1' if necessary.
