(VFP) - Amazing VFP Studio Code Editor in Visual Studio 2008

-
Since posting the countdown, I've been fielding lots of questions regarding VFP Studio. Some of the mystery surrounding VFP Studio has been on purpose and some of it has been because we (Bo Durban and I) are not yet sure what all is possible working within the framework provided by Microsoft via the Visual Studio Isolated Shell. However, in order to provide a little more transparency and begin the process of getting feedback from the community I will be presenting a series of screencasts in the next few months. Here I present the first screencast in the series on VFP Studio's Code Editor.

VFP Studio's Code Editor, which is made possible via a Language Service Bo Durban and I created in Visual Studio 2008, provides some significant enhancements when compared to the editor included in VFP 9.0 including outlining, Quick Info, Intellisense for user-defined classes, line numbers, word wrap, VS-style navigation bar, improved Code Snippets and various other features we are implementing in to VFP Studio. In any event, here's the screencast. Enjoy.

Running Visual FoxPro on Linux By Paul McNett (FoxTalk, March 2003) While Microsoft publicly refuses to release Visual FoxPro for alternate platforms, there's still hope for a multi-platform VFP. Using an open-source product called Wine, Paul McNett shows how we can take matters into our own hands and put the fox on Linux ourselves. Remember last century, when one of FoxPro's greatest selling points was its ability to run and deploy to not one, not two, not three, but four separate platforms? This was a powerful selling point for me when I was choosing my development environment: Even though I only ever deployed to Windows, it was reassuring to know I wouldn't be painted into a corner should a client ask about a Mac, Unix, or DOS version of my software. Contrast that to today: As new versions of Visual FoxPro emerge with their great features and fixes, I keep finding myself thinking that our situation as VFP developers is pretty dire, being limited to developing and deployi
