# Generate Txt File With Directory Tree

http://superuser.com/questions/258287/how-can-i-export-a-directory-structure

Assuming your directory tree is of reasonable size, you could also use the built in tree command, which produces a rather pretty looking directory tree. Unfortunately this prettiness is difficult to get working outside of a cmd instance, so you'll probably want to tell it to just use ascii characters with the /A switch.

### Example:

From a small multi-level structure

```
+---A
|   +---A
|   \---B
+---B
|   \---A
|       \---A
\---C
```

You can then redirect this to a file using a command like:

```
 tree /A ["directory path"] > tree.txt
```

Where the directory path is optional, but useful if you want to tree something which isn't the current working directory.
