Markdown files¶ You can write content in regular Markdown files (e.g., files ending in.md). Jupyter Book supports any Markdown syntax that is supported by Jupyter notebooks. Jupyter Notebook Markdown is an extension of a flavour of Markdown called CommonMark Markdown. It has many elements for standard text processing, though it lacks a lot of. GitHub.com uses its own version of the Markdown syntax, GFM, that provides an additional set of useful features, many of which make it easier to work with content on GitHub.com. USERNAME ˜MENTIONS Typing an @ symbol, followed by a username, will notify that person to come and view the comment. This is called an “@mention”. Command extensions, which are enabled by default, allow a single MD command to create all the intermediate directories in a specified path. Directories are one type of folder, namely, folders which correspond to file system locations.

Make Directory - Create a new folder/directory.

The path can consist of any valid characters up to the maximum path length. Command extensions, which are enabled by default, allow a single MD command to create all the intermediate directories in a specified path.

Directories are one type of folder, namely, folders which correspond to file system locations. There are other types of folders, such as Control Panel or Network Neighborhood or Printers. These other types of folders represent objects in the shell namespace which do not correspond to files.

Naming Restrictions

The set of CMD delimiters (Comma , Semicolon ; Equals = Space ' ' Tab ' ') can be used in a folder name, but they must be enclosed in quotation marks:
MD 'aa=bb' will create a folder called 'aa=bb',
MD aa=bb will create two folders 'aa' and 'bb'

Try to avoid using the following characters in folder names, they may cause problems when scripting: © ® ' & ' ^ @
The maximum length of a full pathname (folders + filename) is 260 characters, this is a limitation of Windows Explorer not NTFS.
You cannot create a folder with the same name as any of the following devices:
CON, PRN, LPT1, LPT2 ..LPT9, COM1, COM2 ..COM9
This limitation ensures that redirection to these devices will always work.

Errorlevels

If the Directory was successfully created %ERRORLEVEL% = 0
If the Directory could not be created %ERRORLEVEL% = 1

MKDIR is a synonym for MD

Examples

Make several directories with one command:

will create
C:tempAlpha
C:tempBeta
C:tempGamma
Make an entire path
MD creates any intermediate directories in the path, if needed.
For example, assuming utils does not exist then:

Md File Link Syntax

for filenames with spaces or punctuation characters, add surrounding quotes:
MD 'utilsdownloadsSuper New Editor'

Md File Syntax Tab
