Hello,

So that you know, the man page on mkdir states, about the -p switch: "No
error if existing, make parent directories as needed." But I was wrong to
post without testing.

Hmmm... I'm looking at the QShell manual, and I see no mention of whether there'd be an error or not...

Here's the v5r4 manual:

Here's the 6.1 manual:

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v6r1m0/topic/rzahz/rzahzmkdir.htm

My only guess is that you're looking in a non-QShell manual (maybe the AIX/PASE one?) In that case, though, you will find discrepancies from time to time...
