Then, when you have the command prompt open, type "dir *.* > dir.txt" (or whatever you want the file name to be) or "dir /b *.* > dir.txt". The "/b" means display the file names only, not size information. If you want to list the contents of subdirectories, "dir /s /b *.* > dir.txt".
With Calibre, that will be a PItA, since each book will be in its own directory. Otherwise, that's a good idea. My brain must be getting addled by all these GUI O/S's. I totally forgot about that.
