Description

The folder data type represents a folder or directory in the file system. A folder may contain folders and files.

Note

If no parent disk, volume, folder, or directory is specified, the current directory is used as the parent.

Security

To use folders, OpenXION's security settings must allow the FILE_SYSTEM_READ security key. If the required security key is denied, a script error will be triggered.
