When using fs.makeDir() where does the directory create? Can you access the directory from a different map?

The directory is created inside the computer save dir (in ".minecraft/saves/<YourWorld>/computer/<ComputerID>" for ssp), and you can only access that directory from that computer in that map.

No, but you can copy it to a floppy and then to other computer.… and you can only access that directory from that computer …

No. Best you could do is make a program that allows remote access via rednet.

To copy a file or directory from the shell, type in the terminal:
> cp <file/directory> /disk/<file/directory>
To do it from a program:
> cp <file/directory> /disk/<file/directory>
To do it from a program:
fs.copy("<file/directory>", "/disk/<file/directory>")
It depends on what you need. If it's just a directoy with some programs, just copying it is easier. If you need access to a directory with files that will be changed by a program, and need other program (in other computer) to read those changes, it would be better to use rednet to share it.No. Best you could do is make a program that allows remote access via rednet.
