Creating a New Directory

To create a new directory on the remote system, change the working directory to the directory in which you want to create the new directory. After changing the working directory, do any one of the following:

When you do any of the above actions, a new dialog titled, Create New Remote Directory will be displayed.

Directory Name
Specify a name for the directory that you would like to create.

Create
Clicking this button will create (or try to create) the directory that you have specified and closes the dialog.

Cancel
Clicking this button discards your input and closes the Create New Remote Directory dialog.

Help
Clicking this button displays this help topic.

Tip In the Directory Name field, you may enter absolute or relative (to the working directory) path names. Below are a few examples assuming your current working directory is set to /wd

Example 1
Entering sampleDir would create a directory named, sampleDir in the current working directory, /wd .

Example 2
Entering subdir\sampleDir would create a directory named, sampleDir in the directory /wd/subdir . The directory subdir must exist in order to successfully create the directory.

Example 3
Entering /temp/sampleDir would create a directory named, sampleDir in the directory, /temp . If the directory /temp does not exists, the directory creation will fail.
