The FILE_MKDIR procedure creates a new directory, or directories, with the default access permissions for the current process.
Note: Use the FILE_CHMOD procedure to alter access permissions.
If a specified directory has non-existent parent directories, FILE_MKDIR automatically creates all the intermediate directories as well.
Examples
To create a subdirectory named moose in the current working directory:
FILE_MKDIR, 'moose'
Syntax
FILE_MKDIR, File1 [,... FileN] [, /NOEXPAND_PATH]
Arguments
FileN
A scalar or array of directory names to be created, one name per string element. Directories must be specified in the native syntax for the current operating system.
Keywords
NOEXPAND_PATH
Set this keyword to cause FILE_MKDIR to use the File argument exactly as specified, without applying the usual file path expansion.
