Can someone give me an example of how to specify a folder to use and
create the folder if it does not exist.

My script uses ~/my-home/tmp to store a temporary file. I need the
script to create the tmp folder if it does not exist. From reading the
'path to' dictionary entry, it looks to me as if it could take care of
this for me.


Works here, Dennis. Try:

set tmpFolder to path to temporary items

or:

set tmpFolder to path to "temp"
