FT_RMDIR
FT_RMDIR()
Delete a subdirectory
Syntax
FT_RMDIR( <cDirName> ) -> nResult
Arguments
<cDirName> is the name of the directory to delete.
Returns
0 if successful
3 if Path Not Found
5 if Access Denied (directory not empty)
16 if attempt to delete current directory.
99 if invalid parameters passed
Description
This function is useful if you need to remove a subdirectory for
some reason.
The source code is written to adhere to Turbo Assembler's IDEAL mode.
To use another assembler, you will need to rearrange the PROC and
SEGMENT directives, and also the ENDP and ENDS directives (a very
minor task).
Examples
FT_RMDIR( "C:\CLIPPER" )
FT_RMDIR( "\EXAMPLE" )
FT_RMDIR( "..\SOURCE" )
Source: RMDIR.ASM

FT_MKDIR
FT_MKDIR()
Create a subdirectory
Syntax
FT_MKDIR( <cDirName> ) -> nResult
Arguments
<cDirName> is the name of the directory to create.
Returns
0 if successful
3 if Path Not Found
5 if Access Denied or directory already exists
99 if invalid parameters passed
Description
Use this function to create the subdirectories needed by your
application. It might be especially useful in an installation
program.
The source code is written to adhere to Turbo Assembler's IDEAL mode.
To use another assembler, you will need to rearrange the PROC and
SEGMENT directives, and also the ENDP and ENDS directives (a very
minor task).
Examples
FT_MKDIR( "C:\CLIPPER" )
FT_MKDIR( "\EXAMPLE" )
FT_MKDIR( "..\SOURCE" )

FT_CHDIR
FT_CHDIR()
Change the current directory
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
FT_CHDIR( <cDirName> ) -> nResult
Arguments
<cDirName> is the name of the desired directory.
Returns
0 if successful
3 if path not found
99 if invalid parameters passed
Description
Use this function if you prefer to change the active directory
instead of relying on the SET PATH command.
The source code is written to adhere to Turbo Assembler's IDEAL mode.
To use another assembler, you will need to rearrange the PROC and
SEGMENT directives, and also the ENDP and ENDS directives (a very
minor task).
Examples
FT_CHDIR( "C:\CLIPPER" )
FT_CHDIR( "\" )
FT_CHDIR( "..\SOURCE" )
