They both look like some sort of "dictionary" definition. The first is the description of a field, the second a different type of description of several fields.

Perhaps a number instances of the first type would describe a file, and perhaps the second is a screen (or report, or an output file).

It looks to be "home grown" and it looks to have been around for a while (limit of eight characters to "keywords" is archaic).

Wild guesses, though.
