You've got to feel for Anita. She's a good candidate for the "U2
Incubator" CD that U2UG is pushing for. We want a single spot where a
new techie can go to install an instance of the personal edition (or
something close to it) along with explanations, examples, and pointers
to resources. Stay tuned.
Anita, Below is an example. There are variations on the theme.
Get used to using BASIC -X option which creates a cross-reference symbol
table.
The first time you compile, the system will create an object directory,
[name].O (the one you were missing when you tried to catalog), and a
crossref listing dir, [name].L if they don't exist.
VLIST shows you the de-compilation of the object. It can be very
useful, too.
FORMAT is good, too, for readability. It is a separate command and
also an ED command, if you are using the old "ED" line editor.
Warning: CATALOG means sometihing differenct depending on what "flavor"
your account is.
The following example is simple, so -X & VLIST aren't interesting. They
get interesting with interesting programs.
