Hi all,
quite often I'm moving a file in Dired (using `R'), and I realize that
a directory I'd like my file to be in is nonexistent. So I C-g, do
dired-create-directory, and then `R' and `M-p'.
This seems too complicated.
I could of course write some Elisp to solve this, but maybe someone did
it already?
TIA,

I have enable-recursive-minibuffers, so i usually do:
C-SPC C-a M-w ; copy whatever is in the minibuffer
M-x m k d i r RET C-y RET ; create that
and continue from there.
I admit it would be nice if this was done automagically.
