LISTFILE

Create List File Compiler Options

Purpose Selects whether a list file should be created on disk.

Syntax LISTFILE = ON/OFF

ON A list file will be created with the same name as the source file

and an extension of .LST.

OFF A list file will not be created.

set in the Edit menu, Compiler Options dialog box.

LOOP

Loop Program Structure

Purpose Define the start of a block of instructions to be repeated several times. A REPEAT

statement must mark the end of the block of instructions. The count (LOOPINDEX)

may be changed during execution.

Syntax LOOP

count Specifies the number of times the statements between LOOP and

REPEAT are execute. The loop count must be between the range

of 0 to 65535. Count may be a nonvolatile variable Gn, a volatile

variable Vn, a system variable, or a mathematical expression.

Remarks If count is 0 the statements in the loop will not execute.

A loop count specified as a variable is tested for valid range (0 to 65535).

The LOOP statements cannot be used in Fkey or Scanned Event routines. If a subrou-

tine is called from a LOOP, the subroutine may not contain a LOOP.
