Why doesn't this work?

I'm just trying to use DEBUG as an assembler, and I can type out my
"source" in a file and then direct it to DEBUG like

c:\ DEBUG<SOURCE.DBG

What I'd like is a listing file, which I thought I could get by

c:\ DEBUG<SOURCE.DBG>SOURCE.LST

but DOS tells me "File not found" (creating the file ahead of time
doesn't work either) and if I explicitly stick in the path of the
files DOS sez "Path not found".

I should probably try to find an assembler to download (not up to 
paying for MASM), but I'd still like to know what's wrong.
