DJGPP+symlinks+mkdir+TDE (Developers)

Dear Rugxulo,
I am writing about tests symlinks in DJGPP, I did it as you explain me.
I compiled TDE51 editor in DJGPP-2.4 enviroment and created link, which
works in TDE as you describe.
But I see the problem anywhere, something is wrong with create directory.
I have mkdir in path from fileutils, but his behaviour is strenght, when
I rename him "mkdire" or "xx" works correctly >>>
mkdire -m
-p
-v
--help
--version
and it seems to be all right, when I use pure mkdir, then I don`t get any parameters as -p -v etc :-| why?

Because "mkdir" (same as "md") is an internal DOS command. Running "mkdir.exe" explicitly should do, what you want.

Did you try to start mkdir.exe from Bash?

It might be better to ask at http://groups.google.com/group/comp.os.msdos.djgpp/topics.
