Create File Listing

Help & Support
1

Anyone know how to do this?

Say I've got

Folder1

and under it is

Folder2
Folder3

And suppose I wanted to select folder1 and tell opus to process all of the subdirs and put the directory listing in a text file called files.lst. So that you'd end up with Folder2/files.lst, folder3/files.lst and so on...

I figure it's probably possible but I"m not sure how to do it just yet...

Welcome to the wonderful world of Opus G-Man. :smiley:

For printing the contents of a lister in general (to paper, clipboard, or files) search the help file index for Print Folder.

For what you're asking this time however, in customize mode I would create a new button and configure it like below.

I see you're still grow'in and crow'in John.
Good job !
Not all that different from the free 4NT version either. :slight_smile:

Ahh ... was it two years ago ?

Here's a two button group I found in the forums somewhere here. It works fine for my purpose. Maybe of use to you.

Thanks to the original poster.

Regards.

I have no idea either :slight_smile: PrintTree isn't an Opus command.

You must have implemented this in its entirety:

[PrintTree — User Command)
