>Genenalized Markup Languge, often called Script GML is a superset of Script. Script came first, then GML tags were developed as Macros in the scripting language.
I believe it started as Waterloo script, then was acquired by IBM (on this I could be wrong). I wrote my University papers using Waterloo script. Then macros were written and assigned to GML as 'tags'. For example: .dm P .sp 1 .dm off .gs p p (If I remember my taging language, correctly -- but it's close) >ran under VM/CMS, And, TSO; I wrote my first professional Capacity Plan under script through TSO in 1981. I didn't have to learn anything above and beyond what I knew from Waterloo script. There was an ISPF interface through Option 3 (Utilities). >html is very similar to it. IBM used to produce their manuals years ago. I wrote my first Capacity Plan, using GML, in 1984. Back then, GML was an add-on. Around 1989, it became part of the package known as SCRIPT/DCF (Documentation Composition Facility) - I'm a SuperHero with neither powers, nor motivation!
