Why doesn't install.exe (from fileutils) have an option to create the destination directory if it does not exist if installing more than 1 source file? For example, I want to do something like this: install *.pl /path/to/destination/perl/script/directory > this complains that the directory does not exist install -D *.pl /path/to/destination/perl/script/directory > this only works with one source and dest file install -d *.pl /path/to/destination/perl/script/directory > this tries to create all directories mentioned in the command line Most unixen have install -c (or -t) which creates the destination directory if it does not exist. I notice install.exe accepts and ignores -c?????
