.SH DESCRIPTION
.B Mkdir
creates a new directory file with name
.IR path .

The directory's group ID is set to that of the parent directory in
which it is created.
.PP
The low-order 9 bits of mode are modified by the process's
file mode creation mask: all bits set in the process's file mode
creation mask are cleared.  See
