MKDIR(2) MKDIR(2)
NAME
mkdir, rmdir - make or remove a directory
SYNOPSIS
int mkdir(name, mode)
char *name;
int rmdir(name)
char *name;
DESCRIPTION
Mkdir creates a new directory whose name is the null-
terminated string pointed to by name. The mode of the direc-
tory is set to mode, as modified by the process's mode mask;
see stat(2) and umask(2). The directory initially contains
two entries: . (a link to the directory itself) and .. (a
link to the parent directory).
Rmdir removes the directory name, which must have only `.'
and `..' entries.
