Remember, back then Fox was cross-platform. FoxBase+/Mac was a
pretty cool Mac application in its day, and FoxPro 2.0 was a direct
copy of the Mac interface, and was the first fully-mousable DOS
application.
Python, and by extension, Dabo, are a return to that. You mention
Linux, but one thing people should remember is that Python kicks ass
on Windows!
