Did you encounter a situation wherein you had to create several directories recursively? just use mkdir/mkdirhier to do the trick try this command:

$ mkdirhier {A,B,C}/{P,Q,R}/{X,Y,Z}
OR
$ mkdir -p {A,B,C}/{P,Q,R}/{X,Y,Z}

Output directory structure should be something like this. each dir A,B,C contains directories named P,Q,R which in turn contain dirs X,Y,Z.

Originally i was looking somewhere in Exim4's documentation where in found out this info. normally this is used to create maildirs where they have several cur,new,tmp directories.
