Mumps is indeed a hospital oriented language. I don't speak mumps, but I
know that it is a standardized (I believe ANSI!) language. As far as I
know, it is still being used. Versions for several OS-es are available,
even for MSDOS. possibly you can contact ANSI for more info (if it is
indeed an ANSI standard language).

Hope this helps...
