Struggling with Microsoft's wording

GarethJ is wondering if MS's "DSL" tools might make people think MS is targeting textual languages. Remarkable.....especially when knowing that DSL's have for decades been textual languages. It remains a mystery to me why MS have not opted for the more correct "DSM languages", with the "M" representing Modeling. I suppose some marketing buff up in Redmond decided "DSL" to "sound" better and of course......it would save some ink.
