daron:
2004, it seems that ADesk hasn't totally left production of lisp on the shelf. Check this out:

--- Quote ---Creates a directory

(vl-mkdir directoryname)

Arguments

directoryname

The name of the directory you want to create.

Return Values

T if successful, nil if the directory exists or if unsuccessful.

Examples

Create a directory named mydirectory:

_$ (vl-mkdir "c:\\mydirectory")
T

--- End quote ---

hmmnn ... useful

thanks for the tip

SMadsen:
VL-MKDIR isn't a new function but documentation of it is new. Now we only need documentation for the other undocumented functions  :)

SMadsen:
-> Here's one they could have documented:

Checks if a number exceeds the upper range of real numbers

(vl-infp num)

Arguments
Any number

Return values
T if number exceeds the range and would return #INF. Otherwise nil.

Examples
(vl-infp 1.79769313486e308)
nil
(vl-infp 1.79769313487e308)
T

(vl-infp (+ 1.79769313486e308 1.0e296))
nil
(vl-infp (+ 1.79769313486e308 1.0e297))
T

What, are they trying to break us in easy? Give us the goods! We'll figure it out. How do you find these things, Stig? Of course, in Vertical Platform's the whole AEC object model wasn't documented, but is now with 2004.
