This script command creates a new local folder. Consider the following example in which a folder is created on the E: drive.
MAKEDIR "e:\newbie"
Folders may be created only one level at a time. For example, if you wanted to create a new subfolder under a new folder named e:\newbie, it would require two MAKEDIR commands as shown below:
MAKEDIR "e:\newbie\subfolder" ;; WRONG!
;; do it this way:
MAKEDIR "e:\newbie"
MAKEDIR "e:\newbie\subfolder"
To create a directory on an FTP site, use the FTPMAKEDIR script command.
