Clipper books?

Question

Programming

I needed to study clipper, I can’t find books in the electronic version anywhere :(
Maybe someone has it?

Answer 1

Oh, necrophilia

Answer 2

Can Norton Guides help?

Answer 3

Not expected. It's nice how - Clipper is still being studied!
I don’t agree about necrophilia - Clipper was developed in CAVO, Harbor ...
As for the programs, BEST feels quite good, for example.
Manuals on the CLIPPER programming language are quite old publications, but have not lost their relevance (hence - online.spb4plus.ru/index.html?01_info.htm ):
• Clipper (1st edition)
• Reference manual for CLIPPER 5.0 (2nd edition ) )
From softclipper.net:
• Clipper Tutorial
• Clipper 5.0
Guide CAVO, Harbor:
• Very detailed tutorial "How to quickly start programming in CAVO 2.5" in English in pdf format.
• Help from Alaska
• Harbor Reference Guide
• more Harbor Reference Guide
Well, in general, the information should be enough ...
Good luck!
I was specifically looking in the closet - I found this book . :)

Answer 4

Is it worth it to start studying such junk at all?

Answer 5

Thank you very much!
I will study :)
Why study:
Banking software :) yes, some banks still have ABS from the 90s working on Pervasive.

Answer 6

Oh nostalgia. I remember when I was programming on it somewhere in 1998-2000, I did such things there that if I look at the code now, I think - what did I smoke? then for me there was nothing that I could not write on it (connected with databases, of course) on Clipper 5.01 I could write even drunk drunk and, moreover, wrote programs with a beautiful interface.
but he started with a small little green book, which was not even a textbook, but a reference book.
