Depends on the version of SAS, and what you mean by default. There's the user default - which you get when you open SAS, and there's the factory installed default which is what it comes set as in the installation. This is an easily changed option so I wouldn't worry too much about which is default since you can change it in all of the latest versions. I prefer the listing default so I've set my SAS 9.3 to have a listing destination as the default.
I believe in SAS 9.3 the factory default was set to HTML. Prior to SAS 9.3 it was Listing. So you're possibly looking at books that have refer to different SAS versions.
