make_dir
The make_dir function creates a directory.
The directory is specified using either a relative path or its full
path (also called an absolute path). For example, a full path would
be a string or value equal to "D:\\data\\2022-06-14\\data" whereas a relative
path would be like "data". If a
relative path is used, the file is created in the current working
directory (see
get_dir). Note that Windows directory
components must be separated by the '\\' or '/' characters.
Syntax
bSuccess, sMsg = make_dir( sPathName )
sPathName is the either a relative path or a full
path name for the new directory.
bSuccess is true if the function is successful or
false if not.
sMsg is an optional message string that recieves
information about the failure.
Remarks
This function does not change the current directory
to the new directory it creates. If the target directory already
exists or cannot be created, make_dir will fail and return
false plus an error message. Use
change_dir to switch to the new directory. You can
use
is_dir to test whether the new directory was
created.
