Screenwrite

   <language> A columnar format {third generation programming
   language} similar in layout to {assembler} and used for
   {transaction processing}, solely on the {Honeywell} {Bull}
   {TPS6} {database}/transaction management system on their Level
   6 {DPS6} {minicomputers} running under the {GCOS6} {operating
   system}.  In the UK it was mainly used by local authorities
   and the Ministry of Defense.  Being proprietary technology,
   its popularity waned with the introduction of {open systems}
   standards, {relational databases} and {fourth generation
   languages} but it is believed that some systems made it
   through {Y2K}.
