There are a few utility programs available that do this (Karen's
Directory Printer (http://www.karenware.com/powertools/ptdirprn.asp) is
probably the most often cited), but a quick and dirty method is to open
a Command Prompt window and type

dir > dirlist.txt

You can use various switches to control what gets listed. For example,
dir /b /on prints only the names and sorts by name

type dir /? for complete syntax
