Re: can swarm create a subdirectory

[Matt Aylward]

Marcus and Paul,
Thanks for the thread, I was trying to do this some time ago but the 4-digit 
directory permission codes confused me (i.e., the sticky bit).
Paul, using this within the code block I gave you for writing rasters to ascii 
would be a significant improvement. As it stands, if the direcrories don't 
exist it all falls down.
I have another query in this area, but I will send it with a new thread. -- 
keep an eye out.

Cheers and Grays,
Matt
