Here is it, for a "direct" call, in case revSBLibrary is not available.
It does the same as Tore's (and probably your) script but is
Wha??? I didn't know this existed. I have a need for that too! I use a repeat
loop to do this. I suppose that is what this function does as well.

I just came to this myself before coming back here
put item -1 of pURL into tFile
put item 1 to -2 of pURL into tFolder
put tDF &"/" & tFolder into tCompletePath
# loop to create sub folders
# Of course we know tDF exists,
# but we don't know about any folder after that

Brian, WOW! This is great insight!
on mouseUp
put "/Users/admin/Documents/brian3/showed/us/the/trick/of/marcus/" into ff
call "revSBEnsureFolder ff" of stack "revSBLibrary"
launch document ff
end
Since we do not need to check whether a folder exists or not before creating it
as LiveCode will not create duplicate folders, here is a script that will
create nested folders:
on mouseUp
put specialFolderPath("desktop")& "/testFolder/testOne/test/result" into
tFolder
set the itemDel to
Check out _revSBEnsureFolder in revSBLibrary for example code that does this.

You can only create one folder at a time. You can not create nested folders in
one go.
So you need to do like this
put tDF & "/media/audio/nature/2017/" into tFolder
create folder tFolder
put “birds” after tFolder
create folder tFolder

Well, lazy types like me would just create the folder "2017" followed
by the folder "birds".
