Sorry to bump a fairly old thread, but I struggled with this even after reading the advice here. I worked it out eventually (I haven't coded for ages so it took a while!)
I'm making an image gallery and wanted to avoid typing all the image names and links so I came back to Blitz to generate a list.
I found out that the dos "dir /b *.jpg > list.txt" would generate the file list and I sussed out a simple Read/Write routine to get the links generated but...
On XP I could use either Command or CMD but to use long file names I had to use CMD otherwise I ended up with names like "050802~1.jpg" instead of "050802LongFileName.jpg" which was rubbish.
You'll probably tell me I could have done the whole thing in Blitz but...
