Oistos (Οιστος) is the ancient Greek word for arrow, and their name for the small constellation known today as Sagitta, the Arrow.  Pragmatics is a science that examines the causal and other relations between words, expresssions, or symbols and their users.  As with the the usual interpretation of "pragmatic", the focus is on the practical: on things that lead to useful results in the real world, not abstract theories.  It comes from the Latin pragmaticus: skilled in business.
