<p>I am new to Python programming and have a small issue, maybe:</p>
<p>How can I create a new folder in the device-tree or the POU-tree?</p>
<p>For example:<br/>
I want to create a new folder at: "Application/POUs" that should be named with "test".<br/>
So that I have a new folder at: "Application/POUs/test" where I can import any POUs.</p>
<p>Is that possible?<br/>
If yes might an example very helpfull.</p>
<p>Regards<br/>
Michael</p></div>
