create "dir"-lists with a right mouse button #31278

Description of the new feature / enhancement

To create cover letters, lists, etc., I often use a batch script with which I can write the contents of folders to a TXT file. I then use the list of the TXT file to document the contents of the folders, in the letters, lists, etc. It would be very helpful if the cmd commands, among others, could be accessed via a power toy via an additional entry in the Explorer's context menu.

Scenario when this would be used?

Supporting information

Here is the content of my batch file, which documents the functions most easily

dir %1*.* /B /ON > d:\pdf-files\dirlist.txt tree %1 /F /A > d:\pdf-files\dirtree.txt d:\notepad++\notepad++.exe d:\pdf-files\dirlist.txt d:\pdf-files\dirtree.txt

Especially the rescues result of tree command might be interesting.
