using "touch" to create directories?
1) in the "A" directory:<br>
<br>
find . -type f > a.txt<br>
<br>
2) in the "B" directory: <br>
cat a.txt | while read FILENAMES; do touch "$FILENAMES"; done<br>
<br>
3)<br>
Result: the 2) "creates the files" [i mean only with the same filename, but with 0 Byte size] ok. But if there are subdirs in the "A" directory, then the 2) can't create the files in the subdir, because there are no directories in it.<br>
<br>
Question: is there a way, that "touch" can create directories?<br>
