Boco Merci

I want to create file listings in this format

mycommand y:\

output

y:\dir1\subdir1\filename1 -tab- date
y:\dir1\subdir1\file2 -tab- date
y:\dir1\subdir2\file1 -tab- date
y:\dir2\subdir1\subsudir1\file1 -tab- date

etc.

There is a hay stack of directory listers, but I didn't find the
appropriate one.
Any suggestions for progs or newsgroups please?

Well, if you could do with two separate programs ?

FileList from http://home.a03.itscom.net/tsuzu/programing/en/
(the fasted lister I ever saw :) and CSVedit from
http://home.hccnet.nl/s.j.francke/software/software.htm
to convert the output to whatever you like :)

Install Python on your PC, spend an hour to learn the scripting
basics and have a look at the docs for the "glob" and "os" modules.

It should take a ~10 line script to produce a file listing like
that.
