       /SEQUENCE
       /NOSEQUENCE (default)

    Positional qualifier.

    Controls whether DSR precedes the lines in the output file with
    the line numbers of the corresponding lines in the DSR file.

    For editors that generate line numbers in the input file, the
    /SEQUENCE qualifier causes similar numbering to appear in the
    output file. The line numbers appear in the left margin at the
    beginning of each line of output.

    If the text editor does not generate sequential numbers in the
    input file, sequential numbers are still generated in the output
    file, but without leading zeros.
