DESCRIPTION

14       PLIST  is a program to list the contents of code output files generated
15       by AS, a cross assembler for a variety  of  microprocessors  and  -con‐
16       trollers.  PLIST takes only one argument: the name of the file to list.
17       If [ name ] does not have an extension, the default extension '.p' will
18       be  added automatically.  The output consists of a single line for each
19       record in the file, listing the target processor, target address space,
20       number  of code/data bytes, and start/stop address.  Note that the dif‐
21       ference between the start and stop address need not equal the number of
22       bytes,  since there are target processors whose memory is not bytewise-
23       organized.  The records that specify entry  address  and  file  creator
24       have  a different layout and therefore have a little bit different look
25       in PLIST's output.
26
27       PLIST does not accept multiple file arguments;  processing  of  several
28       files must be done with individual calls.

NATIONAL LANGUAGE SUPPORT

36       plist  supports national languages in the same way as AS.  See the man‐
37       ual page for asl(1) for more information about this.

RETURN CODES

41       plist may return with the following codes:
42
43       0      no errors.
44
45       1      incorrect command line parameters.
46
47       2      I/O-error.
48
49       3      An input file had an incorrect format.

EXAMPLES

53       To list the contents of a code file file1.p, use:
54
55       plist file1
56
57       There aren't more meaningful examples, as PLIST does not have any  com‐
58       mand line parameters.

TIPS

62       If  PLIST  is started without any argument, it will prompt for a file's
63       name.

HISTORY

72       Pascal, and was ported to C and UNIX in 1996.
