e/Compiler Description Language

Information
has gloss	eng: Compiler Description Language, or CDL, is a Computer language based on affix grammars. It is very similar to Backus–Naur form(BNF) notation. It was designed for the development of compilers. It is very limited in its capabilities and control flow; and intentionally so. The benefits of these limitations are twofold. On the one hand they make possible the sophisticated data and control flow analysis used by the CDL2 optimizers resulting in extremely efficient code. The other benefit is that they foster a highly verbose naming convention. This in turn leads to programs that are to a great extent self-documenting.
