  and user libraries. For example:
  
EXAMPLE: Click to display example.

  The DEFAULT DATA TYPE INFORMATION display in the
  previous example contains the following information:

  .
        The default data type is REAL.
  .
        The default size for floating-point numbers is SINGLE,
        the default size for integers is LONG, and the default size
        for packed decimal numbers is (15,2).
  .
        There is no scale factor in effect.
  .
        Packed decimal numbers are truncated rather than
        rounded.

  The LISTING FILE INFORMATION display tells you which
  parts of the program listing are included if you create a
  compilation listing:

  .
        The source program is listed.
  .
        No cross-reference information is listed.
  .
        CDD definitions are displayed as RECORD statements.
  .
        The qualifiers in effect when the program was compiled
        are listed. This means that the program listing contains
        the equivalent of this SHOW command.
  .
        The %NOLIST compiler directive is not overridden.
  .
        No compiler-generated machine code is listed.
  .
        An allocation map is listed. This contains the sizes and
        offsets of any variables.
  .
        Files accessed with the %INCLUDE directive are listed.

  The COMPILATION QUALIFIERS IN EFFECT display
  contains the following information:

  .
        An object file is produced.
  .
        Overflow checking for integers is enabled.
  .
        Overflow checking for packed decimal numbers is dis-
        abled.
  .
        Bounds checking is enabled.
  .
        Line-by-line syntax checking is disabled.
  .
        Line number information is included in the object file.
  .
        The VARIANT value is zero.
  .
        No warning or informational error messages are dis-
        played.
  .
        BASIC performs normal initialization calls at run time
        (SETUP).
  .
        No user-supplied object module libraries are searched.

  The FLAGGERS display contains the following information:

  .
        Declining features are reported.
  .
        BP2 compatibility issues are not reported.
  .
        Compatibility issues with DEC BASIC for OpenVMS AXP
        are not reported.

  The DEBUG INFORMATION section gives you the following
  information:

  .
        Traceback information is included in the object module.
  .
        No debug records are included in the object module. This
        means you cannot access program symbols with the
        OpenVMS Debugger.
