You save time
With wList, you can make simple file lists from large, complicated folders in
no time. Just choose the location holding all the files you want to list, and
click the 'List' button. All national and international characters are saved
correctly.
wList has a very simple interface, and many carefully chosen features. Some
examples: wList makes it easy to tell how large files are, or to select a
default location to save your lists to.
You can open any file from the list with wList: just double click on the
filename to open and
view the selected file. To open the folder containing this file, double click
it while holding down the Ctrl key on your keyboard.
wList gives you control
You can control the style of your list. There are 10 premade styles (8
as flat lists, and 2 as hierarchical trees); it is also easy for users to
configure custom styles.
For example, you can choose whether the list should include the file sizes,
and what criteria should be used to sort the file list.
You can control the content of your list by choosing to skip certain types of
files. You can choose to display only files, only folders, or both files and
folders. Folders can be nested (having one folder inside another; this contained
folder can also contain folders, etc). You can choose a maximum depth of
nested folders to display, or to list everything.
You can easily choose to list only files of certain types.
There are 12 pre-defined filters available:
JPG, MP3, archive files, audio, documents, executable files, pictures, music playlists, programming, text files, video files, and saved web pages.
Users can easily add custom filters, which are flexibly configurable.
