thanks.... secondly..
i just noticed that makefolder("my new folder") does not actually make a new folder unless you decide to write something to it. Now this was just tested with this code here:
dir$=getdocumentspath()
subdir$="test folder"
SetRawWritePath( dir$)
setfolder("")
makefolder(subdir$)
SetRawWritePath( dir$+"/"+subdir$)
with this code on windows... no folder is made unless....
i do this:
dir$=getdocumentspath()
subdir$="test folder"
SetRawWritePath( dir$)
setfolder("")
makefolder(subdir$)
SetRawWritePath( dir$+"/"+subdir$)
if getfileexists("temp.f")=0
opentowrite(1,"temp.f")
writeline(1,"now a new folder exists")
closefile(1)
endif
now the folder has been created... odd.
