However, it looks like your confusion is what makes a valid MODE argument when using mkdir --m. Try `chmod --help', which will show: Each MODE is of the form `[ugoa]*([-+=]([rwxXst]*|[ugo]))+'. or that you can also use octal modes, like 0750. For example: `mkdir --m u+wrx,g+wx dir' Remember that most long options are recognized when an unambiguous prefix is used, so for mkdir, `--m' is the same as `--mode'. If, on the other hand, you actually want a directory named `--m', try `mkdir -- --m' or `mkdir ./--m'. - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
