PURPOSE

Make directories.

The makedir program will make multiple subdirectories based on command line input. It will make any and all subdirectories up to and including the final subdirectory listed on the command line.

It can also make multiple subdirectories in different locations based on one command line input.

This is for lazy people.

OPERATION

The program is designed to allow you to make any number of subdirectories in a path in one statement.

This is unlike the DOS mkdir command which will only allow you to make one subdirectory at a time.

MAKEDIR will make a designated subdirectory and any non existent subdirectories in the path that need to be made. In other words, it makes whatever intermediate subdirectories as are necessary.
