Oh, there are lots. The term for this is directory printing (listing), or "cataloguing" here in the database.

Some good ones that I've tried are File List Creator, Directory Lister, FolderStyle, LS File List Generator and Pir (old but gold :wink:). Some larger cataloguing programs also let you export catalogues (or any nested folder) to plain text, such as VisualCD.

Nice article on this: https://www.raymond.cc/blog/print-all-f ... r-printer/

Or else you could just type the following at the CLI:

Code: Select all

DIR > list.txt
And type "HELP DIR" for more options... :)
