p. I started my programming career (many moons ago) coding in FoxPro. I love FoxPro. I can’t think of a better language to use for desktop database applications. I think the thing I love the most about FoxPro was the command window. From that window, I could travel to far off worlds…no wait, wrong window. In the FoxPro command window I can execute commands, instantiate objects, explore properties; in short, just about everything I can do in FoxPro itself. It’s a great prototyping tool for all the non-visual stuff. I’ve missed the immediacy of the command window in every other language I’ve worked in. I no longer miss it in PHP!
