Fill in the blanks to complete a command that will create a new features directory with a new ideas subdirectory inside it.
Remember that the mkdir command has an option that will create parent directories as needed... treehouse:~/workspace$ mkdir

Treehouse Project ReviewerIf you are still unsure about it, commands such as the mkdir (used to make directories) have options. These options are defined by a dash - followed by a letter e.g. -a or a double dash -- followed by a word e.g. --all. Not all command line options have a full word abbreviation. The command mkdir has an additional command line option that you can use to make sub-directories within the chosen created directory followed by this option. Rewatch the video to see how.
