Source Program Listing
The NMCOBOL compilation banner consists of this information:
•
Page number of compiler listing, date and time at which compilation began (line 1)
•
Version of the compiler (line 4)
•
Copyright information (line 5)
•
Directives included on compiler command line, if any (line 7)
Source Program Listing
The compiler lists your entire source program, unless you specify otherwise. The
format of the listing depends in part on the current reference format, ANSI or Tandem.
Figure 22-4 compares the two listing formats.
The two formats are aligned such that, even if your program mixes ANSI and Tandem
formats, the COPY and comment indicators and areas A and B are aligned.
