CREATE DIRECTORY

        CREATE DIRECTORY PathName [/PLOT_PAGE SizeX SizeY] [/GEOMETRY  Args]
    [/POSITION Args]

    Create  a  new directory. PathName syntax follows "Unix-like" pathnames,
    with the use of token '<' instead of '/'.  Constructs  like  ..<Dir  are
    valid.

    To  create  a new directory tree (called e.g. NewTop), use the following
    syntax:
        CREATE DIRECTORY <NewTop

    The plot space size of a new directory tree can be customized  with  the
    option /PLOT_PAGE. This option can not be used to create subdirectories,
    since they inherit the plot space size of their parent directory.

    Under X, a new window is implicitely attached to a new top directory be-
    ing created. Its geometry and position can be customized through the op-
    tions /GEOMETRY and /POSITION respectively. See HELP CREATE  WINDOW  for
    syntax  and  creation  rules.  These options are illegal when creating a
    subdirectory (for which no window is attached at creation time).
