Another option would be to use a loop.  Of course, the downside here
is that you wind up executing mkdir multiple times instead of just
once with a huge argument list.

... unless you just build the argument list in the loop and then call mkdir once at the end, of course:


tops=(list of sub folders) subs=(sub sub folders) all=() for top in "${tops[@]}"; do for sub in "${subs[@]}"; do all=("${all[@]}" "$top/$sub") done done mkdir -pv "${all[@]}"
