Suppose you want to view a file list as in file explorer.
METHOD 1:
Is there a program that can do this?
(support for as many types of file lists as possible)
METHOD 2:
Alternatively:
Creating a script (and an exe file for "Send To"), which:
1. get the filelist file,
2. creates in the same location a base folder named as the filelist filename,
3. (sort the list?)
4. and for each line in the filelist, creates a folder or an empty file (with 0 bytes), and gives it a name like the name of the folder/file in the filelist.
So eventually, the user will be able to explore the filelist in Windows Explorer.
