- String Language
-
- The US String Language shell provides a sophisticated programming language
- featuring an elegant string and field reference syntax. Operations can be
- triggered by reference or by statement
-
- The US language includes: interchangeable ASCII and binary arithmetic, parsing,
- field substitution, and in-place field-editing and arithmetic operations,
- elegant and extensive flow control mechanisms, parsed, buffered and unbuffered
- UNIX I/O, a simple screen and form generator, and all the features found in the
- other popular shells
-
- US is extremely fast and efficient, on the order of AWK. Its interpretation
- pass compiles as it interprets, thereby avoiding re-interpretation. US can be
- selectively directed to remember its data parses
-
- US includes an API suitable for interfacing any package for which a basic set
- of operations can be declared. (e.g. SQL or a database) The API gives error
- checked access to internal variables and constants and integrates operation
- results into its normal I/O and/or string referential syntax.
