Re: Help Create an New Directory

Louis,

First, the field you indicated as flags is not flags, but
a pointer to a security attributes structure. Unused in
Win98, not required in WinNT/2000. Can be replaced by
a null (or zero). Or, so says the api from Borland/Microsoft.

Normally, and especially for older functionality such
as CreateDirectory, the api from Borland is complete and
correct, and should be consulted thoroughly.

Function: CreateDirectory ( zname flags -- res )

: CreatApplication ( -- )
   Z" C:\Test Wankel Motor" 0 CreateDirectory . ;
