[Tutor] Creating folders in windows...

[Chris Hengge]

Now, how would I enter this folder? lets say, to make a subfolder or create
files inside it?

I see os.chdir() but that either can't see newly created folders, or I must
use the complete path... I'm not sure which.

just created folder 'test' in current scripts directory...
os.chdir('test')
no such file or directory


Thanks again...
