Hi

Can you help me?
I need to get a folder“s content/items to be listed in a file for archiving.

I want to choose a folder and get the context menu on the folder to run the script, after starting the script ill end up with a file containing filnames, subfolders and filenames as a list in a text document. Is this possible?

This is what i hope to get in the file:

/index.html
/subfolder1/image.jpg
/file2.txt
/subfolder2/subsubfolder1/meta.qsl

I tried to get spotlight metadata but it was just not what i wanted as output.

Something like this??
tell application "Finder"
try
set filesList to files of sourceFolder as alias list
on error
set filelist to files of sourceFolder as alias as list
end try
end tell
