Oriel is a scripting language released with the Power Tools series of instructional books written by the LeBlond Group. Described in its documentation as a "graphics-based batch language", it was originally designed for Microsoft Windows 3.0 and released with the book Windows 3 Power Tools in 1991. However, versions of the language were also bundled with Windows 3.1 Power Tools in 1992 and Windows NT Power Tools in 1994.
The language was named after the oriel style of bay window, and a window of that style is depicted in the icon distributed with the runtime.
