Why would it be a pain ?
When you create the folder, it is created within the defaultFolder at
the time - so you can do
create folder lName
set the defaultFolder to (the defaultFolder & "/" & lName)
Note - that is assuming "lName" is a simple name or relative path+name -
if it's possible for it to be an absolute path name, then you need to
account for that.
