is anyone aware of a way to create a directory from a max patch?
I’d like to create a new folder to export images to each time i open the patch.

you should try with java. max isn’t able to create a directory.


public void makedir(String string){
		boolean success = (new File(string)).mkdir();
		if (success) {
		    System.out.println("Directory: " + string + " created");
		}
}
