DASL programming language

DASL (Datapoint s Advanced Systems Language) was a programming language and Compiler proprietary to Datapoint. Primarily influenced by Pascal programming language with some C programming language touches, it was created in the early 1980s by Gene Hughes.

The compiler output was assembly language, which was typically processed through a peep-hole optimizer before the Assembler and Linker.

Reflecting its name, DASL was used for systems computer programming, mainly by the vendor itself.
