Create / Delete Directory on Unix / Linux
The mkdir command

mkdir stands for make directory which is used to create a new directory

Example:

       mkdir mydir

Note:
  • you need the write rights to create a new directory;
  • the newly created directory bears the permission mode of rwxrwxrwx (777)

    The rmdir command
    rmdir stands for remove directory which is used to delete a empty directory

    Example:

           rmdir mydir

    Note:
  • you need the write rights to run this command.


    To remove a non-empty directory, you have to use:
       rm -f -r mydir

    Note:
  • -f forcibly;
  • -r recursively.
