C's Big Brother is Lurking !

Show all headers | View raw

Hi:

    For those of you who wish to use the C language at a slightly higher 
level, please drop in to the following newsgroup:

        comp.lang.xharbour

    The xHarbour language is based on C and uses a variety of C 
implementations to compile and link its applications.  There are a several 
GUI packages (free and commercial) to build your apps.

    This language is based on the several xBase languages of ten years ago, 
and has brought together the best features of all of them, and exposes 
hundreds of C functions in a very easy C-like syntax:

        Function main()

            local cVrbl := "crackpot"    // 'local' vrbl only accessible in 
this function

            private cAnotherVrbl := "nutcake"    // 'private' vrbl avail 
here and all functions below

            CLS    // Clears the terminal screen

            ? "I'm assessed mentally as : " + cVrbl    // kicks up a line 
and prints

            ? "I'm also known as a : " + cAnotherVrbl  // kicks up anotyher 
line and prints

        /*
            and of course, there are zillions of non-trivial features using 
C and Databases where you can
            become quickly productive and make a good living in our 
language.
            We have about 400 separate tests available for download to 
demonstrate the *power* of
            this language
        */

     return nil

    There are native built-in Comix databases available for your use, and a 
variety of 'SQL' databases easily linkable to your apps.

    You can also include C functions as part of your source code.

    So, if you wish to quickly build an application based on C, then 
xHarbour is the way to go.

    To download the latest implementation of xHarbour:
