mmd(1) General Commands Manual mmd(1) NAME mmd - mtools utility to make a DOS directory SYNOPSIS mmd [-v] msdosdirectory sdosdirectories...] FLAGS Displays the new directory name if the name supplied is invalid. DESCRIPTION The mmd command makes a new directory on a DOS filesystem. Unlike DOS conventions, this command accepts multiple arguments. Reasonable care is taken to create a valid DOS directory name. If an invalid name is specified, the mmd command changes the directory name and displays the new name if the -v flag is specified. If the directory specified ex- ists, an error occurs. DOS subdirectory names are supported with either the '/' or '\' separa- tor. The use of the '\' separator or wildcards will require the direc- tory name to be enclosed in quotes to protect it from the shell. The mcd command can be used to establish the device and the current working directory (relative to DOS), otherwise the default is A:\. ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES The following environment variables affect the execution of mmd: If set, this variable names the file that contains the name of the current mtools working directory as established by the mcd command. If this variable is not set, the file $HOME/.mcwd is used. EXIT VALUES The following exit values are returned: Success Failure FILES Contains the name of the current mtools working directory as estab- lished by the mcd command. If this file does not exist, the default mtools working directory is A:\. Executable file RELATED INFORMATION Commands: mcd(1), mrd(1), mtools(1) delim off mmd(1)
