System Control Language




<language> (SCL) The command language for the VME/B {operating system} on the ICL2900.

SCL was block structured and supported strings, lists of strings ("superstrings"), integer, Boolean, and array types. You could trigger a block whenever a condition on a variable value occured.

It supported macros and default arguments. Commands were treated like procedure calls.
