Ok so I'm looking for a program that I can direct to a folder with a large number of files inside and it will output the names of all hte files to a text file or just to text that I can copy and paste. It seems to simple NOT to exist, but because its so simple I can't seem to search for it without getting 10,000 results on sourceforge :/
any help?

cmd.exe
dir c:\whatever
dir > test.txt
you now have all the filenames in that directory in the test.txt file.

actually, "dir /b > list.txt" would be better. The /b switch outputs just the file names and not any attributes.

f:\> (this is the root that im in) dir /s movies\ >> f:\results.txt

tell me if it looks wrong lol
