There isn't any real need to invoke an external utility for this. One could also try:
Code:
printf "$PWD/%s\n" * > sort.txt

as long as the pathname of your current working directory doesn't contain contain any <percent-sign> or <backslash> characters, or if the pathname could contain some of those characters:
Code:
for fn in *
do	printf '%s/%s\n' "$PWD" "$fn"
done > sort.txt

pyzord

PYZORD(1)						      General Commands Manual							 PYZORD(1)

NAME

       pyzord - spam-catching server

SYNOPSIS

       pyzord [-d] [--homedir dir]

       Note: pyzord does not daemonize itself.

       Note: logging information is written to standard output.

OPTIONS

       -d     Turn on debugging

       --homedir dir
	      use  dir	as the home directory for Pyzor instead of the default ~/.pyzor.  See the files section for more information on what files
	      are inside of the homedir.

FILES

       ~/.pyzor/config

       The format of this file is INI-style (name=value, divided into [sections]).  Names are case insensitive. All values which are filenames can
       have shell-style tildes (~) in them. All values which are relative filenames are interpreted to be relative to the Pyzor homedir.

       Defaults
	[server]
	Port = 24441
	ListenAddress = 0.0.0.0
	DigestDB   = pyzord.db
	PasswdFile = pyzord.passwd
	AccessFile = pyzord.access

SEE ALSO

       pyzor(1)

AUTHOR

       This  manpage was originally written by Bastian Kleineidam <calvin@debian.org> for the Debian distribution of pyzor but may be used by oth-
       ers.   The main author of pyzor is Frank J. Tobin <ftobin@neverending.org>.  The main project page for pyzor can be found at http://source-
