> Has anyone here done anything with GoFish? Obviously Matt Slay has but I haven't seen him around much lately.
Hey!! Matt Slay is alive and well, and still DEEEEEP into FoxPro and GoFish, and helping out a little with certain parts of Thor.
Indeed, I have not been on UT very much lately, but I've still been very active in other VFP outlets, such as our Google Groups communities that we created for GoFish and Thor. We've got a core group of active users and daily discussions about these tools are generally happening there.
As for GoFish, it's alive and well too.. it's had over 700 downloads from VFPx, and the feature list and UI design continue to evovle. It has a pretty fast release cycle, as I asually fix littls nits and some ER's daily, and now that is uses Thor "Check for Updates", you can always pull down the latest build right from your FoxPro IDE.
If you haven't tried out GoFish yet, please give is a whirl.
If you are using Thor, you can get it "automagically" as it's part of the automatic downloads that happen when you run "Check for Updates"
If you are not using thor, you can download and install it the old fashioned way by downloading it directly from the VFPx site:

>>>>The title is my question. I downloaded GoFish (latest beta) and took a cursory look at the info about it. I saw examples of calling it from code but didn't notice anything about using it as part of the IDE. The reason I am interested in doing that is I would like to do something that doesn't seem possible in Code References (which I like a lot and use routinely).
