I'm creating a bash script and I need to know if a directory exists and if it doesn't create it. So far the only why I can see to determine if a directory exists is to try to cd to it and if it doesn't exists trap the error. Is there a better way or a function that I am missing? If not how do you trap a error in bash, if at all possible.
