You don't need QShell in order to create a directory.  You can use the
OS/400 command:
MKDIR '/buck/x'.

If you must use QSH for some reason or another, try the CMD parameter:
QSH CMD('mkdir /buck/x').

If you do something that creates standard output, re-direct it to a file and
you won't get the 'close this window' prompt:
ovrdbf stdout qtemp/x
QSH CMD('mkdir /buck/x; ls -al /buck; rmdir /buck/x')
dsppfm qtemp/x

Hope some of this was helpful.
