I know on my PC how to use the MSDOS window to generate a .txt file of all the files and their attributes (size, name, etc) in a given directory, but how do you do this on a Mac?

basically the same way as in windows - try a different command though...maybe "ls" - is google broken?

I tried google, but all I'm finding is how to list corrupted files or something. I don't need a smart ass answer Omar...jesus

For what it's worth, you can also do it from the finder. Put the window in list view and specify the rellevant collumns in the view options, then select all and copy.

You can also just copy and paste the files from the Finder in to a text box.
