I want to create a batch file that lists directories recursively in Windows but in a linux-like format.For example consider the following batch file:
@echo off
tree /f /a C:\Windows\Boot\dvd>%userprofile%\desktop\tree_output.txt
exit
This batch file echoes or saves the output of the tree command in a text file named tree_output.txt in the user's desktop folder ( the /f argument lists all files in subdirectories as well and the /a argument displays the output of tree command in ASCII text format and not in a graphical format). The tree_output.txt contains the following output:
Folder PATH listing for volume System
Volume serial number is 4E00004E 545D:650E
C:\WINDOWS\BOOT\DVD
+---EFI
| | BCD
| | boot.sdi
| |
| \---en-US
| efisys.bin
| efisys_noprompt.bin
|
\---PCAT
| BCD
| boot.sdi
| etfsboot.com
|
\---en-US
| bootfix.bin
However, the ls -R command in linux would have listed out directories recursively like this:
C:\WINDOWS\BOOT\DVD\
C:\WINDOWS\BOOT\DVD\EFI
C:\WINDOWS\BOOT\DVD\EFI\BCD
C:\WINDOWS\BOOT\DVD\EFI\boot.sdi
C:\WINDOWS\BOOT\DVD\EFI\en-US
C:\WINDOWS\BOOT\DVD\EFI\en-US\efisys_noprompt.bin
C:\WINDOWS\BOOT\DVD\PCAT
C:\WINDOWS\BOOT\DVD\PCAT\BCD
C:\WINDOWS\BOOT\DVD\PCAT\boot.sdi
C:\WINDOWS\BOOT\DVD\PCAT\etfsboot.com
C:\WINDOWS\BOOT\DVD\PCAT\en-US
C:\WINDOWS\BOOT\DVD\PCAT\en-US\bootfix.bin
Is there any way to get the above output in a text file in Windows by creating a batch file? What I have tried to do so far can be summarised as:
What I have understood so far is that this cannot be achieved by using any in-built commands with any parameters or arguments from cmd. My idea to solve this is to first get the tree using tree /f /a command in a batch file and then sort it out using any other batch file or maybe even a c++ program to get the output as in linux .
I think you're looking for
dir /a:d /s /b /o:n
The /s
is used for recursion, /b
for bare format, so without filesizes etc, /a:d
is used to only display directories, and /o:n
is to order by name.
Try Dir /s /b /ad
which is subdirectories bare and directory attribute
