How would you convert a directory and all of its contents to a text file?

IE: I have a very larg folder that contains 3000++ files (files in the subfolders included), and i need to list each of those files including all of the files that are it the sub folders and all the files that are in the sub-sub folders etc.

basically if i where to put the exe drive c (C:\) it would list every file right down to your desktop, game folders, everything.

if i where to put it on my desktop it would list everything on my desktop.


if im not being clear then please say so.

Go to a command prompt and type "dir /s". If that's not the kind of listing you want, try "dir /s /b". If that's not it either, try "tree /f".

If you find one that you like, redirect the output to a text file, i.e. "dir /s /b >c:\filename.txt".

half the time I just mIRC cause I always have one open lol

[code]
//echo 1 $findfile(C:\Mp3s\,*.*,0, write fileindex.txt $remove($1-,C:\Mp3s\))
[/code]

But I think your method is much more efficient :)
