Take a look at File::Path, especially the `mkpath` routine. `use strict; use File::Path; my $directory = '/tmp/some/path'; mkpath($directory);` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

I recently Super Searched on this topic and found "mkdir -p" equivalent?. That should help :) -- b10m All code is usually tested, but rarely trusted.	[reply]

I'd use `system mkdir => -p => $path;`. There's a module that can do this as well, but I can never remember what's it called. Abigail	[reply]
