[dos] Recursive directory listing in DOS

How do we achieve a recursive directory listing in DOS?

I'm looking for a command or a script in DOS which can give me the recursive directory listing similar to ls -R command in Unix.

dir /s /b /a:d>output.txt will port it to a text file

I like to use the following to get a nicely sorted listing of the current dir:

> dir . /s /b sortorder:N

You can get the parameters you are asking for by typing:

dir /?

For the full list, try:

dir /s /b /a:d

You can use various options with FINDSTR to remove the lines do not want, like so:

DIR /S | FINDSTR "\-" | FINDSTR /VI DIR

Normal output contains entries like these:

28-Aug-14  05:14 PM    <DIR>          .
28-Aug-14  05:14 PM    <DIR>          ..

You could remove these using the various filtering options offered by FINDSTR. You can also use the excellent unxutils, but it converts the output to UNIX by default, so you no longer get CR+LF; FINDSTR offers the best Windows option.
