#Dir.Exists

##Syntax Dir.Exists (directoryPathName : string) : boolean

##Description **Dir.Exists **returns true if a directory by the name of directoryPathName exists. It will return false if directoryPathName is a file.

##Details If the Dir.Exists returns false, you can examine Error.Last or Error.LastMsg for more information (i.e. whether the path failed or the directory was simply not found).

##Example The following program determines if the directory "d:/usr/west" exists, and outputs an error message if it does not.

    if Dir.Exists ("d:/usr/west") then
        put "Directory exists"
    else
        put "Directory does not exists: ", Error.LastMsg
    end if

Status   Exported qualified. This means that you can only call the function by calling Dir.Exists, not by calling Exists.
