Output Files And Folders To A Text Document


Disk Index provides a visual interface for the Dos dir command that can output files and folders of a system partition and drive. As we all know the Dos command dir /s > dir.txt creates an output of all files and folders originating from the directory the command was issued. The file dir.txt contains information about all drives and folders to a maximum of all files and folders of a drive if the command was started from the root directory.

Disk Index lists all available drive letters in its program window and additional information about the currently selected drive below that. This information changes when a new drive letter is selected.

The user has to specify a log file which the information will be written to. It will write additional information in the header of the text document including disk size, containing files and folders.

Disk Index works perfectly fine on Windows XP Service Pack 3. There is no information regarding compatibility with other systems.

    “dir /s /b” is list one file in one line include folder.

    I use the almost obscure dirhtml [works perfect for me and has the ability to build lists recursively]
