SYNOPSIS

10       mu [common-options] mkdir [options] <dir> [<dirs>]
11
12

DESCRIPTION

14       mu  mkdir is the mu command for creating Maildirs. It does not* use the
15       mu database. With the *mkdir command, you can create new Maildirs  with
16       *permissions 0755. For example,
17
18              $ mu mkdir tom dick harry
19
20
21
22       creates three maildirs, tom, dick and harry.
23
24
25       If  creation  fails  for  any  reason, no attempt is made to remove any
26       parts that were created. This is for safety reasons.

MKDIR OPTIONS

30   --mode=<mode>
31       set the file access mode for the new maildir(s) as in chmod(1).

33

COMMON OPTIONS

35   -d, --debug
36       makes mu generate extra debug information,  useful  for  debugging  the
37       program  itself.  By  default,  debug information goes to the log file,
38       ~/.cache/mu/mu.log.  It can safely be deleted when mu is  not  running.
39       When running with --debug option, the log file can grow rather quickly.
40       See the note on logging below.
41
42
43   -q, --quiet
44       causes mu not to output informational messages and progress information
45       to standard output, but only to the log file. Error messages will still
46       be sent to standard error. Note that  mu  index  is  much  faster  with
47       --quiet,  so  it  is recommended you use this option when using mu from
48       scripts etc.
49
50
51   --log-stderr
52       causes mu to not output log messages to standard error, in addition  to
53       sending them to the log file.
54
55
56   --nocolor
57       do  not  use ANSI colors. The environment variable NO_COLOR can be used
58       as an alternative to --nocolor.
59
60
61   -V, --version
62       prints mu version and copyright information.
63
64
65   -h, --help
66       lists the various command line options.
