An embedded object-oriented Basic like scripting language used by Lotus Corporation (Later IBM) as the default scripting language on all of their software products. The language has in particular a large number of objects available for use with Lotus Notes, Lotus WordPro and Lotus 123, but it is also used on products that commonly interface with Lotus Notes such as Domino Server and Domino Designer.
The language has great similarities to Visual Basic and VisualAge for Basic.
