[Leaplist] Harbour

[Steve Litt]

Hi all,

Harbour Project is a free software workalike for CA-Clipper. Last time I 
heard, Phil Barnett was the lead maintainer. Jack BigTruck also uses Harbour. 
I just installed Harbour, and now have some questions for Phil, Jack, or 
anyone else who knows Harbour.

* Where can I find a beginner's tutorial?
* How do I write and run a Hello World?
* Can Harbour easily interface with Postgres and MySQL?
* Can Harbour manage input screens that write to database columns?
* Can those screens represent fields from joined tables?
* Any other words of wisdom?

I was going to automate my business in Rails, but now I want to explore other 
possiblities including Harbour and Dabo. In other words, I'm not committed to 
making my business automation a web app.

Thanks
