The /LISTING qualifier causes the compiler to create a source listing file. The format of the /LISTING qualifier is as follows: /[NO]LISTING[=file-spec] To create a listing file with an explicit file specification, you must use the /LISTING qualifier in the form /LISTING = file-spec. Otherwise, the listing file has the same name as its corresponding source file and a file type of .LIS. All other file specification attributes depend on the placement of the qualifier in the command. Note that the /LISTING qualifier only controls whether or not the compiler produces a listing file. The /SHOW qualifier controls which parts of the listing are produced. The default is /NOLISTING from a terminal, and /LISTING in batch mode.
