mkdir -p /user/ast/dir
# Create the /user/ast and /user/ast/dir
DESCRIPTION
The specified directory or directories are created and initialized. If any intermediate directory is missing and -p is specified, the miss-
ing component will be created and no error displayed if directory already exists. If the -m flag is used, this will be equivalent to a
chmod on the directory after its creation.
