Software to list files in folder

[Ext User(Donkey D...)]

Does anyone know of any software, preferably freeware or shareware, that
will list, (and allow printing of filenames), all files in a folder,
including those in sub-directories if possible?

And what about the contents of all sub-directories?

Open a Command Prompt, and navigate to the folder you want.
dir /s >c:\dirlist.txt

This will start in your current directory and list all filenames in
that, and any sub-directories, and save the output to a file named
dirlist.txt in the root directory of C:

You can then open the file in Notepad or another editor for viewing and
printing.

Hello again Oldus Fartus - the biggest problem with doing it from MS-DOS is
that it truncates filenames longer than 12 characters to the old 8.3 format.
I have a lot of filenames that exceed this.

Sorry, I assumed XP, what operating system are you using?

As I just mentioned in my other post, I'm running Win98 on this machine, for
reasons explained in the other thread.

Does XP do a "DIR" without truncating filenames? If so, I do have my
computers networked, so I could possibly do what you suggest from the other
box, via the network cable.

Yes, just saw and replied to that post.

My hint will still work with 98. Rather than restarting in DOS mode
open a Command Prompt via START - RUN - COMMAND

When you dir a DIR from there you will get both the short and long
filenames (short on left of screen, date etc in middle, and long
filenames on right).

Thanks again Denis,
it's way past this old fart's bedtime, so I'll
check that out in the morning.

The /s forces the listing of files in sub directories.

As it happens, a few glasses of wine and some good discussion, (of
bullshit), has kept me up all night, so I'm still awake to read this...

Thanks for the input, "Old Bloke". I'll check out the various replies in
the morning. (Read this as: whatever time I eventually get up after a whole
night sitting at the computer being entertained by the many replies to my
many posts in many newsgroups.) I don't usually stay up all night, but I had
a ball tonight. (My old dog tells me it's time to hit the sack. He's big and
I'm small, so I have to do what he says. Also, the Marianne Faithful CD,
(Broken English), I've been listening to is coming to an end.)

.... another old bloke (aka Old Sam, aka Donkey D..., aka Little Steve)
friends call me Steve. Others call me many things.

P.S. Good to see that I'm not the only Donkey around.
P.P.S As of tomorrow, I'll get back on track and talk electronics, but
tonight there were no interesting posts

Directory printer amongst them. Very handy at the odd time needed and hangs
in right mouse click menu when installed.

You're quite right - problem solved - this is exactly what I was looking
for. Thank you Jolly Rodgers.

Also, thanks to all those who posted and especially to Oldus Fartus who put
a fair bit of effort into this. I appreciate the help.
The reason for my post is that "datasheetarchive.com" is looking to buy
electronic datasheets and I have a fairly extensive collection that I'd like
to share. The money is irrelevant, (and I'm sure they don't pay much), but
if my collection can help others....
