lessmsi.exe can list msi tables, but seeing what files are in an msi is more important. Please consider adding this feature to lessmsi.exe. Thanks.

I mean for the command-line version, lessmsi.exe, not the GUI version, lessmsi-gui.exe. Thanks.

@wdscxsj Can you please tell me if the l command will meet your needs? See the following link for more info on the l command: https://github.com/activescott/lessmsi/wiki/Command%20Line#command-l-list

If you need something different please explain what you want differently.

if the -l command doesn't meet your needs please re-open the issue or comment here.

For a msi newbie like me, the listing command "l" instinctively means "what files are in it?", i.e., the first tab info of the GUI version. I'll grep the output to find anything interesting. If lucky, then use "x" to get it out. That's a quite natural work flow... Msi tables? Maybe too much for a newbie :). Thanks a lot for your quick response!

@wdscxsj If you have another suggestion for the command output (tab delimited or something to make it look nice??) please reply and I'll be happy to consider it. If you're interested in making the code changes yourself and need help, let me know I will be happy to assist you!
