The '''Organiser Programming Language''' (OPL) is a common [[embedded system|embedded]] [[programming language]] for portable devices such as [[Personal digital assistant|PDAs]]. [[Source code]] written in OPL can be [[compile]]d for several [[Psion]] devices, including the PSION [[Psion 3|Series 3]], [[Psion 5|Series 5]], [[Psion 7|Series 7]], and the PSION WorkAbout.
The first implementation (without graphics) was for the [[Psion Organiser]] II (1986).

OPL is a [[structured programming]] language. Example:

PROC test:
print "Test"
pause 80
ENDP

OPL includes easy access to graphical functions, menus and other [[GUI]] elements.

After [[Psion]] retired from the PDA market, the project was resumed as [[Open Source]] and the [[Acronym]] was reinterpreted as [[Open Programming Language]]. Developement continues on [[SourceForge]] by the ''opl-dev'' project.
