Chris Wilson Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 I am beta testing a mail app (The Bat!) and a new alpha version is giving me grief. I want to list and save all the file names in the root directory and e-mail them to their mailing list. I know how to go into a DOS prompt box under Windows 2000, which is my OS, and how to get a listing (C:\BAT DIR /W /P) but how can I copy the listing as text and bring it up under true Windows to e-mail it off to the list? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mawby Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Do DIR /W /P > MyFile.txt That will redirect the output from the screen and to a file named MyFile.txt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted March 16, 2005 Author Share Posted March 16, 2005 Thanks Mawby, works fine. Appreciate the quick reply. I have forgotten a lot of DOS stuff nowadays... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
