Interesting idea. Maybe I could start a consulting business helping people go from VFp to Fox2.6 :-)

But seriously: Take a look at the old runtime and then compare it to the new one. Just by size. Then subtract the size of the old runtime from the new one. Everything that is left wasn't there before. (Well, that's kind of a poor man's way to judge, but it gives a rough idea).

Point being: The old stuff is a small fraction of what's there now.
