title: How to make a folder in python? -mkdir/makedirs doesn't do this right
body: <p>I have a little problem.
  I'm kinda new in python so I need help here.</p>
  
  <p>I'm trying to make a folder but it should be independent on location.</p>
  
  <p>The user can be on desktop and it will make on desktop and if in a directiory there and so.</p>
  
  <p>I mean: </p>
  
  <pre><code>os.mkdir('C:\\Program Files\\....') 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>is not good</p>
  
  <p>It's not possible to do: </p>
  
  <pre><code>os.mkdir('\\just a dir') ?
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Why do I have to mention all the way to there?</p>
