During FoxPro Mac's mercifully brief life, the most prominent booster was Lisa Slater. She wrote a pretty decent book about it which I used in my one FPM project, which was a consulting gig for a very large Chicago-based company. I wish I had better news to report, and maybe things have changed (which I doubt since Microsoft stopped developing it after one release), but it remains the worst software product I have ever had the misfortune to work with. Buggier than Maine in June, not really true to the Mac interface, and sloooooow. Slow as in 30-40 minutes to do a project build before you could test your latest change. And that wasn't hardware, because we had the best Macs available at the time. It was pure agony.
I love FoxPro. I love Macs. The two just didn't intersect very well. A botch.
