title: How do I create a new directory through a shell script in Linux?
body: <p>I'm trying to create new directory <code>/proj</code> with subdirectories <code>bin, cgi, sbin, etc...</code> if <code>/proj</code> does not exist. However, instead of creating multiple subdirectories, it creates a single subdirectory named <code>{Changes...src}</code></p>
  
  <pre><code>#If project directory exists, then do not create a new one.                             
  if [ -d /proj ]; then
       echo "Project directory exists. New directory will not be created."
  
  #Otherwise, create a new project directory.                                             
  else
       echo "Project directory does not exist. Creating a new project directory..."
       mkdir -p proj/{Changes,Makefile,bin,cgi,doc,etc,html,lib,sbin,src}
  fi
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What am I missing to make the subdirectories I want?</p>
