To simplify the Powershell option even further, the following command
gathers all the files in the current folder and its subfolders into a list,
and puts the result directly into the clipboard, so you can just paste into
your word processor immediately after running it:

get-childitem -Recurse -Name|clip

Note that the vertical straight line |  is a pipe character (which shares
the same key, via shift, as backslash on my keyboard).

Best,
Dan
