The WITH DEBUGGING MODE Clause 

Function 

The WITH DEBUGGING MODE clause 
indicates that all debugging sections and all debugging lines are to be
included in the object code.  If this clause is not specified, all
debugging lines and sections are treated as if they were comment lines.

The WITH DEBUGGING MODE clause is not an obsolete feature in ANSI'85 as
it can also be used in the Nucleus.
