Comments for CLIP
my experience with clip
basic clipper and dbf functions are very good, but there are some new areas that present small problems (sql, non-clipper datatypes provided for compatibility with other dialects) and other areas that are simply incomplete (gtk2 support).
My only problema was to learn how mature each area and library is. I had to learn from trying...
Otoh, small bug fixes were easy to implement, the internals are understandable by just studying the code.
I think clipper is the best language to write text-mode full screen data entry programs. and clip is the best tool I could find. Thanks.
It's amazing!
Dear Clip Team
i just want to tell how wondered i'm from this product. I'm now in the testing phase, but i think that the next thing i will do is to buy a commercial license. Great job!
Many thanks for bringing Clipper alive again!

Compile with cygwin
Hi, i tried to compile with cygwin under windowsxp

In file included from /usr/include/w32api/winnt.h:164,
from /usr/include/w32api/windef.h:246,
from /usr/include/w32api/windows.h:48,
from _file.c:540:
/usr/include/w32api/basetsd.h:110: error: parse error before ',' token
make: *** [_file.o] Error 1
cygwin version is 1.5.10.
It was something wrong?
Re: Article about CLIP
Otimo artigo, incentiva o uso da linguagem, bem como demonstra os passos basicos para a instalacao, quero tambem dizer-lhes que estou trabalhando em um projeto com o CLIP e o POSTGRESQL, esta bom pra comecar e acho que vai otimo essa parceria.

CGI programming
Clip is a very nice alternative for writing CGI applications under Linux with apache.
Unfortunately i can't find any examples in the docs,
so i don't know how to handle gets and posts. :(

Fast and reliable
I tried the Clip. Very powerful andmostly reliable, except
some gtk stuff.
Now trying to port on my ia64 machine. Not so easy. Maybe
I'll have to post some patches for this architecture.
On ia32, works smoothly and efficiently. Good job.
New development (as of 2009) is happening at users.skynet.be/angelo...
