Re: Windows listing tool

DOS rocks man! Still use it today and can do things much quicker in many instances rather than through Windows. You can also use wildcards too so for example if I want to create a file list of all files with the extension .avi I would use the command dir c:\ *.avi/s >c:\list.txt
I can then either edit c:\list.txt and open in dos editor or use windows notepad. You can use several combinations of wildcards and paths. I frequently make use of both xcopy and attrib to perform functions so much more quickly tham I can with windows.
