Checks to see if the path exists, is of the right type, owned by the right
people and has the correct access modes. If not, then it corrects the path.
If -d, -f or -p is specified, checkpath checks to see if the path
exists, is the right type and has the correct owner and access modes. If
any of these tests fail, the path is created and set up as specified. If
more than one of -d, -f or -p are specified, the last one will be used.
Type.
File, directory and pipe types are supported, if type is not provided then
directory is used
The argument to -m is a three or four digit octal number. If this option
is not provided, the value defaults to 0644 for files and 0775 for
directories.
Mode.
Mode should be provided as a three (644) or four digit string (0644). If mode
is argument is not provided then default value is used: 0644 - for files, and
0775 for directories.
The argument to -o is a representation of the user and/or group which
should own the path. The user and group can be represented numerically
or with names, and are separated by a colon.
Truncate variant of options create empty directory or file, or clears contents
if it exists.
The truncate options (-D and -F) cause the directory or file to be
cleared of all contents.
Quiet argument suppress normal output, repeat quiet argument to suppress errors.

.Xc
checks to see if the path is writable.
If -W is specified, checkpath checks to see if the first path given on
the command line is writable. This is different from how the test
command in the shell works, because it also checks to make sure the file
system is not read only.
Also, the -d, -f or -p options should not be specified along with this option.
The -q option suppresses all informational output. If it is specified
twice, all error messages are suppressed as well.
