DATAK is a single core load interpretive compiler programming
system designed for facile manipulation of PDP-5/8
peripherals and data. The program was written by DEC prior
to 1965 and is no longer maintained by them. They have replaced
DATAK, conceptually at least, by their new disk
based system INDAC. For the installation not possessing a
disk, however, DATAK is a valuable tool.
