Or is your os module different? I'm using the latest version (1.5.2). I took a look at the lib documentation for os.makedirs and found the following: makedirs(path[, mode ]) Recursive directory creation function. Like mkdir(), but makes all intermediate-level directories needed to contain the leaf directory. Throws an error exception if the leaf directory already exists or cannot be created. The default mode is 0777 (octal). New in version 1.5.2. So it appears as if this will require 1.5.2 to run. My setup for python is the default so hopefully the problem should only be a 1.5.2 versus older versions problem. I know there was mention of a RedHat issue with 1.5.2 versus 1.5 on the omniORBpy mailing list. I think some versions of RedHat ship with 1.5 by default, so sometimes even if people had 1.5.2 installed, 1.5 would still be in their path. If it is a problem to use 1.5.2 only stuff, let me know and I'll think of a workaround here. I like os.makedirs() over os.mkdir() because the former will put in all intermediate directories when making directories, but I can do something different. Let me know if you can't get it working, or if you get more errors.

I figured this would feature would be coming around sometime, so I haven't been worrying about it too much. >BTW Brad, we're gonna have to call you "The Beaver" because of how much work >you've been doing. You're making me look even lazier than usual ;-) Hey, it's easy to be a programming monkey, but much more difficult to be thinking up the ideas/keeping things together. You should give yourself more credit, Jeff! Brad
