IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

[Marc Seeger]

Just in case somebody runs into the same problem as me :)

When exporting a track, I received this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

At first I was a little bit confused because the "open(path, 'wt')"
call should create the file if it isn't available, but then I looked
closer at the message and found the solution:
--> create the "export" directory <--

the open call will create files that don't exist, but NOT directories.
