This should be faster:

basedir = 'RAM:TEST'

if ~exists(basedir) then do
files = showdir(basedir,'D','0A'x)
do i=1 until i=0
/* you can't combine index-var with forever, so let's simulate an
"endless" loop */
/* you also could do i=i+1 at this place without the i in the do header
*/
tmp = basedir||'.'||i||'0A'x
if pos(tmp,files) = 0 then do
address 'COMMAND' 'MAKEDIR <>NIL:' tmp
leave
end
end
end

exit
