WITH DEBUGGING MODE
When WITH DEBUGGING MODE is specified, all debugging sections and debugging lines are compiled.

When WITH DEBUGGING MODE is omitted, all debugging sections and debugging lines are treated as comments.

Usage note: If you include a COPY statement as a debugging line, the letter "D" must appear on the first line of the COPY statement. The compiler treats the copied text as the debugging line or lines. The COPY statement is executed, regardless of whether WITH DEBUGGING MODE is specified or not.
