Quick shoutout to xHarbour and Harbour - the open-source, commercially-supported versions of Clipper. https://github.com/harbour/core
The projects are still going strong and many years ago I had ported a huge Clipper project into Harbour and had it working well across a 20 node network with both Clipper and Harbour binaries working simultaneously on the same database.
These days every time I make another web application I wish for the simplicity of xBase. But there is some core truth about application development hidden there that is lost to me now.
Thanks for posting. I was a Clipper app developer in the 80's and early 90's, and seeing my old friends TBColumn() and TBrowse() just gave me a rush of nostalgia :)
Amen. Add also Nantucket (Clipper) being acquired by CA (Computer Associates) which pretty much killed Clipper.
