-S writes every label and the address it was given, in address order.
Nothing else knows that. A program on the disk is bytes; the monitor can
disassemble it but has no idea what any of it is called. So counting which
addresses a program calls says a great deal and names nothing - the answer
arrives as a column of numbers and somebody works out by hand which routine
each one is inside.
It was deferred when the native assembler was planned, as a listing and symbol
dump nobody needed yet. Finding out where the assembler spends its time is what
needed it: the top six call targets were addresses until this existed and are
numStep, numCompare, tokGet, srcNext, numAddByte and clsSameName with it.
Sorted by address rather than by name, because the question asked of it is
always "what is at this address".
