It's time to learn how to create directories. This involves the use
of the <tt>mkdir</tt> command. Try the following:
<P>
<P><TT> /home/larry# <em>mkdir foo</em> <BR>
/home/larry# <em>ls -F</em> <BR>
Mail/ <BR>
foo/ <BR>
letters/ <BR>
papers/ <BR>
/home/larry# <em>cd foo</em> <BR>
/home/larry/foo# <em>ls</em> <BR>
/home/larry/foo#
<P></TT>

Congrats! You've just made a new directory and moved into it. Since
there aren't any files in this new directory, let's learn how to
copy files from one place to another.
