10.4 -Creation: touch and mkdir

- -
-

10.4.1 touch

- -

touch(1) is used to change the timestamp on a file. You can -change access timestamps and modification timestamps with this command. If the file -specified does not exist, touch will create a zero length file -with the name specified. To mark a file with the current system time, you would issue -this command:

- - - - - -
-
-% ls -al file1
--rw-r--r--    1 root     root        9779 Feb  7 21:41 file1
-% touch file1
-% ls -al file1
--rw-r--r--    1 root     root        9779 Feb  8 09:17 file1
-
-
- -

There are several options for touch, including options to -specify which timestamp to modify, the time to use, and many more. The online manual page -discusses these in detail.

10.4.2 mkdir

- -

mkdir(1) will create a new directory. You simply specify the -directory to create when you run mkdir. This example creates the hejaz directory in the current directory:

- - - - - -
-
-% mkdir hejaz
-
-
- -

You can also specify a path, like this:

- - - - - -
-
-% mkdir /usr/local/hejaz
-
-
- -

The -p option will tell mkdir to -make any parent directories. The above example will fail if /usr/local does not exist. The -p option -will create /usr/local and /usr/local/hejaz:

- - - - - -
-
-% mkdir -p /usr/local/hejaz
