more modern or more marketed?
I don’t understand the condescension about anything that isn’t VFP. I moved on to more a *modern* platform (Python) over a decade ago because I wanted to have more opportunity than an EOL’d product like VFP offered. Marketing had nothing to do with it. What was important was that this was an open language, and some corporate bigwig could not shut it down and stop development, as Microsoft had done with VFP.
