How would I go about creating a new directory inside the directory that I start q from? (MacOS).
Thanks
Hi Diarmaid,
If you are just trying to create a directory that you are already in, where you started q, then the following should work:
\mkdir foo
If you are trying to create a directory in the folder where q is installed, then I think you can use:
\mkdir system["which q"],"/foo"

Hi Diarmaid,
Additionally, you could also use
system["mkdir ",a]
Where a is a variable with a string value that you would like the directory to be named.

You can also use \cd which will create a directory if it doesn’t exists. It is also platform independent.
