LSL: A Link and Selector Language
Summary: LSL combines hierarchical, network, and relational data models into a single language/environment, enabling coexistence of diverse data models. It aims for a pragmatic compromise among DB approaches, with an implementation on PDP-11/45 running UNIX and interfaces to a host language and a conversational graphical facility.
