well, i never had too much success with [sys_gui] using the "exec" command

"mkdir", for one, does not work, or at least i can't get it to work. 
(maybe i am using it wrong).

i'm sending

[exec mkdir D:\\test(

but nothing happens.


BUT: what [sys_gui] CAN do, though, is to execute a .bat file (which in 
most cases i prefer to use anyway since i can reliably test the outcome)

so, thanks for the reminder

(and it outputs a bang after completion, too ;-))

best
