Right. The "copy" command never creates directories. It w

For completeness' sake, this is the new script I came up with:
import os
dirfrom = 'C:\\test'
dirto = 'C:\\test1\\'
makedir = 'mkdir "%s"' % dirto
copy_command = 'copy "%s" "%s"' % (dirfrom, dirto)
if os.system(copy_command) == 0:
print "yay"
else:
if os.system(makedir) == 0:

simple stuff, I know, but it's stumping me:
import os
dirfrom = 'C:\\test'
dirto = 'C:\\test1\\'
copy_command = 'copy "%s" "%s"' % (dirfrom, dirto)
if os.system(copy_command) == 0:
print "yay"
else:
print "boo"
