Hello Jeff,
Akua Sweets can do that:
repeat 5 times
a new folder in "minerva:" named "Goofy!"
end repeat
It's smart enough to serialize the folders given the base name.
Goofy!
Goofy! 1
Goofy! 2
Goofy! 3
Goofy! 4
Mark Alldritt's FileIO osax can also do it (it's part of the Script Tools collection <
http://www.latenightsw.com/downloads.html>):
set i to ""
repeat 5 times
createFolder ("Goofy! " & i) in "minerva:"
set i to i + 1
end repeat
Goofy!
Goofy! 1
Goofy! 2
Goofy! 3
Goofy! 4
