Hi there, I’m trying to use the mkdir command with [system] but all I get is error messages, has anyone been successful with it so far ? Thank you very much.
but all I get is error messages
Would you mind sharing the error messages? ;-) Your OS version would be helpful as well.

i guess what christof is pointing at is that [system] doesn't give us any error messages at all ;-)
([system] is avery minimalist object, as far as i can guess from a look at the source code).
@David:
you have to use double backslashes as path seperators. single backslashes are just used to escape special characters in PD.
so, to create a directory called my_temp on partition D, you would write:
[mkdir D:\my_temp( | [system]
Your OS version would be
helpful as well.
must be windows, right ? i don't think [system] even loads in OSX or LINUX

I used [motex/system] in a recent project because it was the only object that can create directories in Linux, Mac OS, and Windows. So I can confirm it loads and works on all platforms. But yes...it's very minimal, doesn't report errors, and you have to deal with backlashes for the Windows case.

The ceammc library have a [system.exec] object which can run external command in separate process with output for every OS.
