Create folder on desktop in Igor

Question

I'm wondering if anybody knows how to create a folder on the desktop of your computer using code in Igor.

I know how to delete a folder on my physical computer

NewPath MyFolder "C:Users:MyNameUser:Desktop:MyFolder:"
DeleteFolder/P=MyFolder

But I don't see anything similar to this for creating a folder. I know how to create a data folder within Igor

NewDataFolder root:MyFolder

But can't figure out how to create a new folder on my desktop or something. Anybody have any ideas on how to do this?

Answer 1

Figured out the answer

All you need to do is say

NewPath/C MyFolder "C:User:MyNameUser:Desktop:MyFolder"

The /C flag creates a folder rather than just a reference path
