For a long time now we've all known the other development teams need some lessons from the VFP team (hehehe).

The other two are american languages, which is why I feel they are wrong, backwards.

As I've noted in previous messages, the former two (in addition to MapObjects) uses reverse logic and their patterns slope in the opposite direction to the Fox. Why?
