Well im gonna try explain the program im seeking, Im seeking a free program that can automatically make a infotxt about contents in a directory or a future cd.
I download a few games, patches, manuals from here, and i want to burn those files onto a cd, but i want to be able to have a good overview on whats on the cd. ex. i make a directory called newCD. And i want the program to type a file list txt of all the files in that directory. It could look something like this: /Games Windows/Ufo/UFO - Enemy Unknown.zip /Patches and ect/Ufo/XcomUTIL 9.6 beta/xcubeta.zip and so on, anyone know of such program? :blink: :help: |

Nope, but a program like that's fingerpractice in a scripting language. I'd write one for you, but I can't code in any decent scripting language (yet) and wouldn't know how to read the contents of a directory and turn each result into a string in any language I do know.

Simple .bat-file then, if you're lazy
Just tested /s and /v. /s is recursive, while /v only shows the contents of the current folder. |

Make a .txt-file and put this in it:
Code:
@Echo off Dir /s > Index.txt |

Or, in old DOS commands, just type "edit blabla.bat" and write those 2 lines there.
And voila! |

dir /s /b is probably a better choice than just dir /s. The /b means it'll list pathnames only, without all the table headers and footers and stuff.

I researched a bit more about dos commands, and i have found some good switches to add.
The command i like the most now is: DIR /S /A:A /D /O:G > blah.txt |
