You can abbreviate the name of this command to MD. For example,
to create a SALES directory under the LEDGER directory, type the
following and press
MD \ LEDGER\ SALES
Removing Directories
To delete a directory from a disk, use the RMDIR command (or its
shorthand equivalent, RD). For example, to remove the directory
ACCOUNTS, which is subordinate to the directory LEDGER, you
could log onto the LEDGER directory, type the following, and press
Enter:
ACCOUNTS

files or subdirectories, attempting to delete it will produce an error
message.

or its shorthand equivalent, CD. For example, to change to the root
directory from anywhere in the directory tree, type the following and
