Also, have a look at the API document; there're a few functions
dedicated to creating and uploading files and directories in the
following two sections:

http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/doc_core_api/High_priority_functi/

Functions such as t3lib_div::getURL and t3lib_div::writeFile may be
useful for what you're describing...
