PDL is designed for constructing support systems of various software development processes. PDL scripts(programs) are composed of tool activation and window control functions. They also have functions to evaluate those function concurrently. Various macro notations are provided to improve readability and to help stepwise refinement of the abstracted scripts. The PDL interpreter allows to assign values or give definitions to undefined functions detected during execution. It also has various facilities for debugging, command history, screen editing of the definitions. PDL interpreter has been implemented on several UNIX workstations, and we executed relatively large programs such as JSD (Jackson software development).
