It was developed in the early 1970s at [[Intermetrics]] in [[Cambridge, Massachusetts]]. The first published manual was released in

December, 1973, which is entitled "CS-4 Language Reference Manual and Operating System Interface";<ref name="DTICEntry" />; the document had three parts: CS-4 Base Language Capabilities; CS-4 Operating System Interface; and Overview of

Full CS-4 Capabilities.

==History==

Little is known about the CS-4 language, but it was developed for the [[United States Navy]] in the 1970s, and was an ongoing research project, which was continuing the study of extensibility and abstraction techniques to develop a requirement of the language to be simple and compact.<ref name="HOLReport">{{cite book | url = http://www.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/a057449.pdf | title = Higher-order Language Technology Evaluation | author = Timothy A. Dreisbach |author2= James L. Felty | author3= Ira Greenberg |publisher = Intermetrics Inc. | issue = A057449}}</ref>. The language was first documented in 1973 by Miller et. al ,<ref name="HOLReport" />, and was revised in 1975 to allow "data abstractions and more powerful extension facilities"<ref name="HOLReport" />
