NAME

       IO::mkdir - Makes a directory.

SYNOPSIS

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

ARGUMENTS

       dname The directory name

       mode The permissions to set. This is optional,  and  if  omitted  will  default  to  setting  all  access
       permissions  allowed by the current process umask, but will not set the setUID, setGID, or sticky bit. On
       Windows, this parameter is ignored completely as the file permissions system is very different.

DESCRIPTION

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