Hi all,
Can anyone share a strategy for triggering creation of a new directory that works on Linux, Mac OS, and Windows? I've been using mkdir commands via [shell] for Linux and Mac, but don't know of an option for Windows.

[system] from the MOTEX library (unfortunately there's no [shell] on windows)
it's quite basic and does no error report, but it works (still). thanks to PD now admitting backslashes can be used easily if used carefully
try something like [dir D:\Temp > D:\dir_result.txt( or (in your case) [mkdir D:\testdir(
(or any other harddrive letter or directory. "D" is just my personal data partition, so i'm not messing around on my system partition)

Sounds perfect, thank you!
