Additional information in the ABO V1.2 listings

Answer

This newly added section contains the complete list of instructions from the input module.
There is one section for each CSECT that was optimized. These input instructions are
the same as those already present in the "Optimized Instructions" section. In that section,
the input instructions are shown interspersed with the corresponding optimized
instructions, and as such are not a complete and in order list.

The "Input Instructions" section begins with the COBOL compiler version used for
the compilation and the "Signature information bytes" extracted from the CSECT.
The "Signature information bytes" are documented in the COBOL Programming Guide
and provide information about the compiled program.

In the example below, the COBOL CSECT named COBARRAY was optimized.
