Hi Jeff,
Did you check out Joel Leach's DevOps https://virtualfoxfest.com/Sessions.aspx#DevOps_with_Visual_FoxPro session? It's not exactly on this topic but he incorporated external builds into his DevOps and that part might be useful.

This morning I've been doing some refactoring (I use that term loosely) and listening to some guys talk in one of the rooms at Virtual Fox Fest. I'm splitting long lines and cleaning up comments, etc in vscode then switching over to VFP (Version 6 still I am ashamed to say) and compiling the prg to make sure I'm not getting any errors. I was thinking it would be convenient if I could make VFP compile the file I'm working on when I save it and then maybe have something look for ERR files to show up and send me a notification if it does. Does anyone have any experience doing something like this? I'd be willing to put some time into the tooling to do this. Seems like it is possible. I do realize I'd get a little more syntax checking with VFP6 and a lot more with VFP9, but I am more used to the text manipulation in vscode. Maybe I am just dreaming!
