  23. SAMPLE command to use MD            | Comments about the output
  24.  
  25. MD C:\PROBLEMS                        This command will make the 
  26.                                       new subdirectory on C:, no
  27.                                       matter what the current 
  28.                                       directory was when this 
  29.                                       command was typed.

  35.                                       another method to make

  38.
