Print files list using DOS

In DOS, using DIR command(with additional parameters), we can achieve this thing.

Syntax

To print the files list:
dir /b > prn
To save the list as a file:
dir /b > filename.txt
dir - Command
/b - Parameter. For bare format (Displays only file names. No heading information or summary).

Output

Now I'm executing this command in C Drive (on my system):
C:\> dir /b > CDriveFiles.txt
Now open the file CDriveFiles.txt to view the contents:
AUTOEXEC.BAT
CONFIG.SYS
Documents and Settings
Intel
Program Files
WINDOWS
 
Using other parameters of DIR command, you can change the output.
