In V3R2, you need Client Access or another equivalent program (I used
RUMBA) in order to access any directory of your AS/400, including QOpenSys.

Well, the CRTDIR (shortcut = MD) CL command creates folders & subfolders.
The CHGCURDIR (shortcut = CD) CL command changes your current directory.

Aside from that, I'm not sure what you mean by "navigate".  If you're
trying to create files or read a list of files from a CL program, you
probably can't...  you'll probably have to use the IFS APIs from an RPG or
C program.  (Since QSHELL didn't exist in V3R2)
