Have a movie folder consisting of around 800 titles (mediocre i know) and I need to make a list for a dude who wants to leach a few but doesn't want to lan. A quick search reaped little, there must be a simple way to do this, Lay it on me.

make a screenshot of your folder containing movies?
I was going to ask this exact same question a few days ago. For a different reason, though.
- I can't fit all the files/folders on one screen to take a screen-shot.
- You can only screen shot the top folders/files, not the folders/files inside those folders.
- I want text, not an image.
Not really. For me:NooBesT wrote:

Nah thought of that, it would consist of three separate screens, if feel a text document would be simpler imo but if there is no other way.

Here's an Autohotkey script:
Code:
;Change next two lines if needed path = C:\Movies outfile = C:\list.txt Loop, %path%\*, 1, 0 FileAppend, %A_LoopFileName%`r`n, %outfile%
Open a cmd window in the folder and type dir > filelist.txt
Thank you. Learn your cmd/term folks, lots can be done with it.san4 wrote:

Success, Yep the command prompt is life I now realise, easy too. Thanks to .Sup, liquidator and san4 for the suggestions. Thread can be closed at mod's discretion.
i need to know how to do this too. how do i open a command prompt in the window?
There's a couple of ways but the simplest is to just go to your windows\system32 folder and copy the cmd.exe file to the folder that you wish to use it in. Run it from there and it it will work.ceslayer23 wrote:

Btw, use dir /B > filelist.txt if you want to get rid of all the jargon and just have the file names in the txt file.

The easiest way I know of to open a command prompt in a particular folder is to install the "Open Command Window Here" powertoy from Microsoft. It's a free utility that lets you right-click on any folder and start a command window there.ceslayer23 wrote:

You can do it with media files using winamp. Load them into it and save the playlist as a txt file.
Depends how many you load, but winamp can be a memory hog yeah..Sup wrote:

It's just a dirty way of doing it which I've used in the past. lol
Just importing them in to the library wouldn't do anything..Sup wrote:
