The mkdir (m a k e dir ectory) command in the Unix, DOS, DR FlexOS,1 IBM OS/2,2 Microsoft Windows, and ReactOS3 operating systems is used to make a new directory. It is also available in the EFI shell4 and in the PHP scripting language. In DOS, OS/2, Windows and ReactOS, the command is often abbreviated to **md**.

The command is analogous to the Stratus OpenVOS create_dir command.5 MetaComCo TRIPOS and AmigaDOS provide a similar MakeDir command to create new directories.67 The numerical computing environments MATLAB and GNU Octave include an mkdir function with similar functionality.89
