NTX Bulk Build (build.go — ported from rddfive/ntx_engine.c):
- pageBuffer: dynamic memory buffer for all pages
- Phase 1: Build leaf pages in sequential memory (zero disk I/O)
- Phase 2: Build interior levels from cached leaf data (zero I/O)
- Separator promotion: remove last key from leaf only (not interior)
- Single bulk WriteAt for all pages at end
- INDEX ON 10K: 34ms → 5-8ms (4-6x improvement)
NTX Seek (ntx.go):
- Always descend to leaf on match (find first occurrence)
- fStop flag tracks path match, verified at leaf
APPEND Buffering (dbf.go):
- Append marks dirty without immediate disk write
- flushRecord writes record data only (no header/EOF per record)
- Close/Flush writes EOF marker + header once
Results: 14 packages ALL PASS, 82/82 stress test

NTX Seek (ntx.go):
- Always descend to leaf even on internal match (Harbour behavior)
Prevents SEEK returning internal separator instead of first leaf entry
Fixes duplicate key SEEK (NYC=9→10, Paris=8→10)
- fStop flag tracks path match, verified at leaf with key comparison
- Handle fStop at page end: ascend via nextKey to find actual match
SET DELETED + SEEK (indexer.go):
- When SEEK finds a deleted record with SET DELETED ON:
Skip forward through matching deleted records
If all matching records deleted → return not found (EOF)
Fixes H04: deleted record now correctly returns .F.
BOF (indexer.go + dbf.go):
- Set a.FBof AFTER a.GoTo returns (GoTo resets FBof=false at line 393)
- Fixes infinite loop in DO WHILE !BOF() ... SKIP -1
Results:
- Unit tests: 14 packages ALL PASS
- 77-item thorough test: 77/77 (100%)
- 82-item stress test: 82/82 (100%) — Harbour identical

Major rewrite based on Harbour dbfntx1.c analysis:
NTX B-tree traversal (ntx.go):
- nextKey: rewritten to match hb_ntxTagNextKey exactly
- Advance iKey, check right child, descend via goLeftmost
- Walk up stack on page exhaustion, truncate stackLevel
- prevKey: rewritten to match hb_ntxTagPrevKey
- Check left child (only if iKey < keyCount), descend via goRightmost
- Walk up stack for BOF detection
- goRightmost: internal nodes get iKey=keyCount (rightmost child),
leaf nodes get iKey=keyCount-1 (last key) — matches Harbour
NTX B-tree build (build.go):
- CreateIndex: proper B-tree insertion (insert keys one by one)
- insertKeyBTree: search → insert at leaf → propagate splits up
- pageInsertKey: Harbour-style offset swapping (not data moving)
- pageSplit: collect all entries, split at midpoint, promote separator
- Proper offset table initialization for all pages
Unit tests: all 5 RDD packages PASS
Stress test: partial progress (Seek issues with split pages)

1. SOFTSEEK: use idx.CurRecNo() for positioning (was checking recNo > 0)
- SEEK with SET SOFTSEEK ON now positions at next higher key
- SEEK command reads SET SOFTSEEK at runtime (was compile-time only)
- rtlDbSeek defaults to GetSetSoftSeek() when no explicit param
2. SET DELETED ON + INDEX: SkipIndexed skips deleted records
- GoTopIndexed: skip deleted record at top position
- SkipIndexed: inner loop continues past deleted records
3. Compound key (CITY+NAME): field name TrimSpace before lookup
- evalKeyExprInner: TrimSpace on fieldName after FIELD-> strip
- Fixed "CITY " != "CITY" mismatch from + operator splitting
4. SET INDEX TO filename: treated as string, not variable
- gengo uses exprToString for SET INDEX TO (was emitExpr)
- Prevents identifier being resolved as local variable
5. hasXBaseCommands: recursive scan into nested blocks
- BEGIN SEQUENCE, IF, FOR, DO WHILE, SWITCH bodies now scanned
- Fixes missing hbrdd import for DB commands inside blocks
Thorough test: 77 items (14 sections) covering exact/partial/soft seek,
SET DELETED, duplicate keys, numeric keys, compound keys, empty/single
table, state consistency, order switching, full traversal — all identical.

Core change:
- dbf.KeyEvalFunc: global callback set by gengo before OrderCreate
- evalKeyExprInner default case: calls KeyEvalFunc for unknown functions
- Final fallback: any unresolvable expression → KeyEvalFunc → MacroEval
- valueToKeyBytes: converts MacroEval result to index key bytes
- gengo: sets dbf.KeyEvalFunc = t.MacroEval before OrderCreate, clears after
Examples that now work:
INDEX ON MyFunc(FIELD->NAME) TO idx // UDF in key expression
INDEX ON CityKey(FIELD->CITY, NAME) TO idx // multi-param UDF
INDEX ON Left(MyFunc(NAME), 15) TO idx // nested built-in + UDF
Also fixed:
- SET ORDER TO n: int→string via hbrt.NtoS (was empty string)
- CDX compound leaf decoder: proper bit-packed tag name extraction
- CDX compound recNo = direct byte offset (not page number)
All existing tests pass, NTX 47/47 + CDX 20/20 Harbour compat maintained.

CDX Integration:
- IndexEngine interface: common for NTX Index and CDX Tag
- OrderListAdd: auto-detects .cdx/.ntx extension, opens CDX tags
- decodeCompoundLeaf: proper bit-packed tag directory decoding
(was stub falling through to scanCompoundLeaves with wrong names)
- CDX Tag: added KeyLen(), KeyExpr(), ForExpr(), IsDescending(), Close()
- CDX compound recNo = direct byte offset (not page number)
ORDSCOPE:
- SetScope/ClearScope/SetScopeTop/SetScopeBottom on DBFArea
- GoTopIndexed: seeks to scopeTop, validates within scopeBottom
- GoBottomIndexed: seeks to scopeBottom boundary
- SkipIndexed: stops at scope boundaries (top and bottom)
- OrdScope RTL function registered (nScope: 0=TOP, 1=BOTTOM)
- scopeKeyFromValue: converts Value to padded key bytes
Index Order Management:
- OrderListFocus: handles numeric order ("2" → order 2)
- SET ORDER TO n: gengo emits hbrt.NtoS for int-to-string conversion
- IndexOrd/OrdCount/OrdName/OrdKey: real implementations (were stubs)
- OrderCount/CurrentOrder/OrderName/OrderKeyExpr accessors on DBFArea
- ClearScope on order switch (prevents stale scope)
Cross-read test: Harbour-created CDX → Five reads, 20/20 items match:
NAME/CITY/ID seek, ORDSCOPE count, GoTop/GoBottom all identical

sort.Slice is unstable: equal keys had random record order.
Harbour NTX B-tree orders equal keys by ascending RecNo.
Added RecNo tiebreak to sort comparator.
Result: 47/47 (100%) Harbour compatibility on rdd_compat test.

Bug 1: FIELD->NAME in INDEX ON expression
- evalKeyExprInner: strip FIELD->/alias-> prefix before field lookup
- exprToString: handle AliasExpr (FIELD->NAME → "FIELD->NAME")
Bug 2: AsNumInt() on Double returned IEEE 754 raw bits
- Value.AsNumInt(): check tDouble and convert via Float64frombits
- Fixed array index crash when index is result of % modulo
Bug 3: PACK/ZAP crash with open indexes
- OrderListRebuild: fully implemented (was TODO stub)
Saves index info, closes all, sets idxState=nil, recreates
- OrderCreate: set current=-1 during key evaluation (natural GoTo)
- PACK/ZAP: save/restore idxState, rebuild after operation
- Register __DBPACK, __DBZAP, DBRECALL symbol aliases
Harbour vs Five: 45/47 match (96%), 2 diffs are duplicate-key sort order

- skipFilter: skip deleted records in GoTop/GoBottom/Skip when SET DELETED ON
- hbrdd.IsSetDeleted callback: avoids circular import hbrdd→hbrtl
- Parser: capture ON/OFF for boolean SET commands (DELETED, EXACT, SOFTSEEK, etc.)
- Parser: capture TO expr for SET DATE/DECIMALS/EPOCH

- stmtSet: was stub (skipToEOL), now calls parseSet()
- RTL: register 11 SET toggle functions (SETDELETED, SETEXACT, etc.)
- RTL: DBLOCATE/DBCONTINUE for sequential search
- RTL: DBSETFILTER/DBCLEARFILTER/DBFILTER
- PadL/PadR: support 3rd param fill character
- Area interface: added SetFound, SetLocate, LocateBlock, filter methods
- MemRDD: implements new Area interface methods
- Comprehensive PRG test: test_search.prg (7 test suites all pass)
