New to Clipper and programming

[abstractee]

I downloaded Harbour compiler and have some Clipper code to compile, so if anybody has experience with this program can you please explain me how to use it. How do I compile with Harbour?

There is enough help on how to use Harbour at

http://www.harbour.org

You can also find what you'll have to modify in order to compile clipper code with Harbour.

Good luck!

Rob.

Thank you for trying, but harbour.org is some shipping company's site.
What you meant probably is harbour-project.org, but their site is temporarily offline.

What I need to know is what command I should type in MS-DOS in order to compile my code.
It's pretty basic wuestion and anybody who uses Harbour should know it.
I hope someone will help me.
Thanks.

to see if that works.

To get [x]Harbour to compile your source, run the bld.bat with a .prg source as it's parameter.

http://www.xharbour.org

is the correct site.
There are 2 (x)harbour compilers.
The xharbour version is the most updated one.

For xharbour you can also buy a commercial shell that makes it easier to compile your apps.
