Why I can't do something like this? mkdir folder/subfolder/ in order to achive this I have to do:
mkdir folder
cd folder
mkdir subfolder
Is there a better way to do it?
You can:
mkdir -p folder/subfolder
The -p flag causes any parent directories to be created if necessary.
To create multiple sub-folders
mkdir -p parentfolder/{subfolder1,subfolder2,subfolder3}
FWIW,
Poor mans security folder (to protect a public shared folder from little prying eyes ;) )
mkdir -p {0..9}/{0..9}/{0..9}/{0..9}
Now you can put your files in a pin numbered folder. Not exactly waterproof, but it's a barrier for the youngest.
