Millions lines of code created with CA-Clipper are waiting for their deaths in millions of computers. CA Inc., once having created the best means of development, left its developers without support. In the absence of progress in CA-Clipper, a great number of users now have to turn to other platforms.

Remaining CA-Clipper adherents, the group of programmers has decided to breathe new life into these tools.

We have decided:

P.S. Since we know the Clipper 5.0x dialect best of all, we take this into account in the first place. But it means no impossibility to achieve compatibility with later versions. In particular, compatibility with RDD has been provided. Please send us any revealed incompatibilities in the form of short test PRG files, and we will try to solve these problems.
