System Control Language

language (SCL) The command language for the VME/B

operating system on the ICL2900. SCL was blockstructured 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.
