<h3 class="section">9.1 Printing Source Lines</h3>
<p><a name="index-list-555"></a><a name="index-l-_0040r_007b_0028_0040code_007blist_007d_0029_007d-556"></a>To print lines from a source file, use the <code>list</code> command
(abbreviated <code>l</code>). By default, ten lines are printed.
There are several ways to specify what part of the file you want to
print; see <a href="Specify-Location.html#Specify-Location">Specify Location</a>, for the full list.
<p>Here are the forms of the <code>list</code> command most commonly used:
<dl>
<dt><code>list </code><var>linenum</var><dd>Print lines centered around line number <var>linenum</var> in the
current source file.
<br><dt><code>list </code><var>function</var><dd>Print lines centered around the beginning of function
<var>function</var>.
<br><dt><code>list</code><dd>Print more lines. If the last lines printed were printed with a
<code>list</code> command, this prints lines following the last lines
printed; however, if the last line printed was a solitary line printed
as part of displaying a stack frame (see <a href="Stack.html#Stack">Examining the Stack</a>), this prints lines centered around that line.
<br><dt><code>list -</code><dd>Print lines just before the lines last printed.
</dl>
<p><a name="index-g_t_0040code_007blist_007d_002c-how-many-lines-to-display-557"></a>By default, <span class="sc">gdb</span> prints ten source lines with any of these forms of
the <code>list</code> command. You can change this using <code>set listsize</code>:
<a name="index-set-listsize-558"></a>
<dl><dt><code>set listsize </code><var>count</var><dt><code>set listsize unlimited</code><dd>Make the <code>list</code> command display <var>count</var> source lines (unless
the <code>list</code> argument explicitly specifies some other number).
Setting <var>count</var> to <code>unlimited</code> or 0 means there's no limit.
<p><a name="index-show-listsize-559"></a><br><dt><code>show listsize</code><dd>Display the number of lines that <code>list</code> prints.
</dl>
<p>Repeating a <code>list</code> command with &lt;RET&gt; discards the argument,
so it is equivalent to typing just <code>list</code>. This is more useful
than listing the same lines again. An exception is made for an
argument of &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">-</span></samp>&rsquo;; that argument is preserved in repetition so that
each repetition moves up in the source file.
<p>In general, the <code>list</code> command expects you to supply zero, one or two
<dfn>locations</dfn>. Locations specify source lines; there are several ways
of writing them (see <a href="Specify-Location.html#Specify-Location">Specify Location</a>), but the effect is always
to specify some source line.
<p>Here is a complete description of the possible arguments for <code>list</code>:
<dl>
<dt><code>list </code><var>location</var><dd>Print lines centered around the line specified by <var>location</var>.
<br><dt><code>list </code><var>first</var><code>,</code><var>last</var><dd>Print lines from <var>first</var> to <var>last</var>. Both arguments are
locations. When a <code>list</code> command has two locations, and the
source file of the second location is omitted, this refers to
the same source file as the first location.
<br><dt><code>list ,</code><var>last</var><dd>Print lines ending with <var>last</var>.
<br><dt><code>list </code><var>first</var><code>,</code><dd>Print lines starting with <var>first</var>.
<br><dt><code>list +</code><dd>Print lines just after the lines last printed.
<br><dt><code>list -</code><dd>Print lines just before the lines last printed.
<br><dt><code>list</code><dd>As described in the preceding table.
</dl>
