     A Source window shows the source code or assembly-language
     instructions of a program that is being debugged. It may also
     contain any text file.
 
     A program in a Source window appears in one of three display
     modes:
 
     Mode         Display
 
     Source       Source code only
 
     Assembly     Assembly-language instructions
 
     Mixed        Source code mixed with the corresponding
                  assembly-language instructions.
 
     To control the display mode:
 
        ■ Choose the Source Window command from the Options
          menu
       OR
        ■ Press F3
 
        ■ Enter the Source Display Mode (S) command in the
          command window
          See: Options Menu: Source Window Command
               Source Display Mode (S) Command-Window Command
 
     CodeView can display two Source windows at one time; one Source
     window is designated as active. When a Source window is active,
     any commands that do not specify a particular Source window affect
     the active Source window.
 
     To make a Source window active:
 
        ■ Click the left mouse button in the window
       OR
        ■ Enter an S1 command in the command window to
          make Source window 1 active or an S2 command to make
          Source window 2 active
          See: Make Source Window Active (S1, S2) Command-Window Command
 
     The highlight that indicates the currently executing source line
     follows the thread of control indicated by CS:IP. Other Source
     windows are not tied to CS:IP. You can toggle the tie on or off
     by choosing the Source Window command from the Options menu.
