Parv Say, which programming language is that in the left window?

This is MetaPost, a very useful language for drawing anything,
esp. technical diagrams that contain a lot of repetitions.  What you
see in the left window is the part of the source that describes the
actual diagram on the right.  What you don't see are the routines for
drawing individual objects and computing their positions.  The range
of graphical primitives available in MetaPost is huge, you can draw
almost everything.
