Looking for a Program

[Tech_N9ne]

Hi all,
I'm looking for a program that will generate a list of files in a certain directory. I'm trying to make a list of all the DVD Covers I have but do not want to type out all 10gb of DVD Covers I have. I tired LS- File List Generator but when I exit the program it still remains running in my processes and it will not "End Task". I have to reboot my system for it to complete stop running. :annoyed: Anyone know a similar program for this? Thanks

I have been looking for something like this also... I have backup HD's that I store and need to find a way to catalogue them...

[/dev/null]

Not the best way to do it, but just stick a batch file (assuming you are using windows) like below in the directory and run it...

 
@echo off
 
dir /b > mylist.txt

[Tech_N9ne]

yeah i did that but would like to include sizes. just looking for a program that would do something like...

[File Name]                              [Size]
Something About Mary                     4.6 MB
--------------------------------------------------
Number of Files: 1
Total Size: 4.6MB

That's probably what Shotgunjim is looking for. I'm looking for more of just listing a certain directory of it's content not so much a whole CD or HD Volume. That' is a nice program though. Thanks

use the command prompt theres a command to send all contents of a fiodler with file sizes to a text file I'll have quick look to see what it is

start > run > command > change directory to the folder you want like

E:
cd movies
then type
dir > mylist.txt

and it'll give you as text file like

Volume in drive C has no label.
Volume Serial Number is D8CE-

@Tech_N9ne

try these mate

[padd]

Open a command prompt, go to the directory you want and type

tree /F > c:\yourfile.txt

should produce a text file with a directory tree listing

[kramer]

try this

start

run

type cmd

go to your directory using cd.. to go backwards and cd (folder name) to get there and dir/p to see the contents of that folder

eg
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.

C:\Documents and Settings\Chris>cd..

C:\Documents and Settings>cd..

C:\>dir/p
Volume in drive C is WindowsXP
Volume Serial Number is 5CEC-92D1

8 Dir(s) 4,676,714,496 bytes free

C:\>cd program files

once you find the folder that you want type dir/p and then right click and select all
press enter
open up notepad or any program and right click then paste hence it will give you a list without typing
