mmd - make an MSDOS subdirectory
SYNOPSIS
mmd [ -v ] msdosdirectory [ msdosdirectories... ]
DESCRIPTION
Mmd makes a new directory on an MSDOS filesystem.
Mmd will allow the following command line option:
v Verbose mode. Display the new directory name if
the name supplied is invalid.
Reasonable care is taken to create a valid MSDOS directory
name. If an invalid name is specified, mmd will change
the name (and display the new name if the verbose mode is
set).
An error occurs if the directory already exists.
MSDOS subdirectory names are supported with either the '/'
or '\' separator. The use of the '\' separator or wild-
cards will require the directory name to be enclosed in
quotes to protect it from the shell.
The mcd command may be used to establish the device and
the current working directory (relative to MSDOS), other-
wise the default is A:/.
Mmd returns 0 on success, 1 on utter failure, or 2 on par-
tial failure.
