Some commands create an output directory early on (e.g. link nt); others wait until we know that, for example, a single "good" file / contig / etc. exists that we can output data for (e.g. link graph...) It would be nice to be more consistent with this, where reasonable.
In general, delaying creation of output files is nice because it avoids cluttering the user's system with empty files.
