Thanks exactly what I was looking for. Modified Matthew’s code slightly to incorporate recursive directory creation.

#code
import os;

dirname = “mydir”
if not os.path.isdir(os.path.join(os.getcwd(), dirname)):
os.makedirs(os.path.join(os.getcwd(), dirname))
print os.getcwd()

This also works on Windows unchanged, but like it better like this:

[code]
dirname = "my_dir_name"
if not os.path.isdir(os.path.join(os.getcwd(), dirname)):
os.mkdir(os.path.join(os.getcwd(), dirname))
[/code]

My $0.02. Nice site BTW.
