MODE

     Use SHOW MODE to report the modes that are currently set.

     This command is used primarily with the SET  MODE  and/or  CANCEL
     MODE  commands.  It indicates the condition of the current modes,
     enabling you to change one or more of them if necessary.

     When you issue the SHOW MODE command, the mode values are  always
     displayed in lowercase letters.

Format:

     SHOW MODE


MODULE

     Use SHOW MODULE to request PATCH to display all  the  modules  in
     the  image file and indicate whether the symbols contained in the
     modules are available for use.  This command also  indicates  the
     amount  of symbol table space required by each module and routine
     and the total amount of unused  space  remaining  in  the  symbol
     table.

     The SHOW MODULE command reports an informational error message if
     no local symbol information was passed to PATCH.

Format:

     SHOW MODULE


PATCH_AREA

     Use SHOW PATCH_AREA to report the size and  starting  address  of
     the  current patch area in hexadecimal representation, regardless
     of the current radix setting.

Format:

     SHOW PATCH_AREA
