[CLUG] Command

[Baldwin_James at emc.com]

Derek,
This is a quick yoke I put together in Korn Shell.  It 'should' also work in
bourne _if_ Korn is not available.
It will also tell you the dir that fails.  Just read in yer old directyory
structure from a file I called directory_list
J.


set -A arr `cat /tmp/directory_list`
num=0
while [ $num -lt ${#arr[*]} ]
    do
	mkdir ${arr[$num]}
stat=$?
            if [ $stat -ne 0 ] 
                then
                    echo "failed creating for directory " ${arr[$num]}",
status ="
$stat
            fi
        num=`expr $num + 1`
    done

done

or something like that?
