Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     A directives file means COBOL.DIR or a file that appears in a
     DIRECTIVES or USE directive. For the contents of COBOL.DIR to
     appear in the source listing, SHOW-DIR must be specified at the
     start of COBOL.DIR, as this file is processed before any other
     directive.
 
     You can use SHOW-DIR and NOSHOW-DIR selectively so that only
     parts of the directives file are output to the listing.
