Not to create lst file

Post by betulkayisoglu »

Is it possible not to create lst file while running gams?
Because my lst file is really huge and for that reason, my computer has memory problems and stops running gams
I do not need a lst file

When I search from GAMS I saw the expression below;

Creation of the lst file can be suppressed by setting output to NUL under Windows

How can I do this?

Thanks..

On the OS level you can redirect the listing file to the nullfile via command line option o=/dev/null (Unix) or o=nul (Windows), but it is much better to deselect the parts that make the listing file big because with the OS solution GAMS still spends time writing. The table https://www.gams.com/35/docs/UG_GAMSOut ... ustomizing in documentation tells you what and how you can suppress individual parts of the listing file.
