Hmmmm. . . got me there!

I suppose that there are things that a clone could do better than what is done in VFP now, but I do think that that ground is far less fertile than it was back in the day of dBase/FoxBase.

A clone that looks the same but doesn't act (at least) the same doesn't have much attraction to me. Now a clone that looks and acts the same PLUS has some better stuff too would certainly get my attention.
