OK, I Googled!
I now believe this is a tapered sliding dovetail.

The shoulder and tail face (or is it pin face?) remain parallel along its length, the tail is the same depth throughout.
The width of the taper narrows along its length, as shown in red.
My intended method will allow this taper to be made, but not a taper that makes the shoulder and tail face tapering.
Can I taper just one side?
It will be necessary to tell the program whether the board is facing up or down, left or right.
