    DOCUS (Display Oriented Computer Usage System) appears to be one of the most general in this area. It is based entirely upon a push-button scheme with responses shown on the scope. The overall system consists of a number of subsystems languages, specifically the General Operating Language (GOL), a Procedure Implementation Language (PIL), DisplayOriented Language (DOL), FORTRAN, CODAP, a debugging language, and some applications for file management, text manipulation, computation, and graphics. The system is implemented on a CDC 1604B.
