well, not that it necessarily makes any difference in this instance,
but
there is a difference between the two - creating a folder using Tracker
will set the BEOS:TYPE attribute to describe it as a folder - mkdir
just creates the dir, with no attributes... I ran into this recently
when
checking to see if there were any subdirectories in a specified folder
as above - probably doesn't make a difference in this case, just
thought
i'd point it out :)
