They do exist, and IMO they're languages just as much as textual ones
are. You don't eliminate computer language by switching to a GUI
drag-and-drop system than you eliminate human language by using hand
signs. In fact, deaf people generally communicate using something
called "{American,Korean,Australian,...} Sign Language" - it's not
called "American Way of Talking Without Talking Or Using Language".
