>SET MINDREADING will be in Visual Studio 13 but only for VJ++. The JVM will be renamed Java Virtual Mindreading and will incorporate that feature. Of course, you could always communicate with a VFP13 app through DCOM (Distributed Component Obvious Mindreading).

Right. VFP of course will have become an end-user product by then, having changed it's name from Visual FoxPro to Virtually FoolProof. It's reliance on COM+ (Microsoft's enhanced Completely Oblivious Mindreading, first implemented for mid-level manager interfacing for Office 2001) and the implementation of the DWIM (Do What I Mean) instruction will make the debugger a completely unnecessary part, but it will continue to be supported, along with the foundation read, for backwards compatibility...
