brain-dead programming

Help me find a windows graphical "drag and drop" script builder.

I believe it used Perl, but I can't be sure, and I am fairly sure I saw it here on MetaFilter. Anyone remember it?

Response by poster: It used "blocks" of code from an included library that prompted the user for the appropriate variables/search terms/etc.

I, too, would love to know about this.

I've been thinking about writing something like this for a while. It seems to me like it'd be a nice little niche. If you can't find it, we should talk ;)

Best answer: Sprog?

Response by poster: It was indeed Sprog! Thank you very much.

Response by poster: Unfortunately, now that I look at it again, Sprog doesn't seem very useful. Devilsbrigade, shall we talk?
