NAME

6       IO::mkdir - Makes a directory.
7

SYNOPSIS

9       Void  mkdir( String dname, Permissions mode=Permissions([ReadP, WriteP,
10       ExecuteP], [ReadP, WriteP, ExecuteP], [ReadP, WriteP, ExecuteP], false,
11       false, false) )
12

ARGUMENTS

14       dname The directory name
15
16       mode  The  permissions  to  set.  This is optional, and if omitted will
17       default to setting  all  access  permissions  allowed  by  the  current
18       process  umask,  but will not set the setUID, setGID, or sticky bit. On
19       Windows, this parameter is ignored completely as the  file  permissions
20       system is very different.
21

DESCRIPTION

23       Makes  a  directory,  throwing a IO.FileError (3kaya) Exception if cre‐
24       ation fails. The permissions  set  will  be  affected  by  the  current
25       process umask (see the mkdir(2) man page) on Posix systems.
