Actually, you can create a directory from the Applesoft prompt
by using the "CREATE xxxx,TDIR" command.


The ,TDIR is redundant for creating directories since that's the
default type for the CREATE command, but it's worth noting you can
create a file of any type in this manner

Yep--I found that out TDIR was the default shortly after posting.
I actually never use it to create directories, so I never assume
defaults!  ;-)
