First of all I am a total noob to Linux just switched over about 2 days ago.  there was a time in windows and dos that you could make a simple bat to automate things, move files, rename files, so forth and so on. Well I am trying to create a simple bat file in Linux and I cant get it to work.  I am working in a Shell only environment no GUI.  There was a previous post on this board about it I did what it said and it didn't work.  here is what I pretty much did

Jed marktest.bat
(typed into file)  mkdir /var/www/docs/hobohound.org
(saved the file, exited jed editor)

Back in shell mode typed:  chmod +x marktest.bat

I got an error "command not found".  I have tried many different ways of wording it and am getting no where.

This is but a simple BAT file to make a DIR  when finished I will need this BAT file to make Hundreds of DIRs, but I cant even get the basics to work.

Any help with this would be great.  Thank you all.
