+ website
+ Added Harbour website (except art, docs and stat subdirs)
; TODO: configure automatic mechanism to extract site from

; TODO: Clean HTML code, remove unused picture/files, avoid JS
Any takers?
; NOTE: Please make modifications to website code only in
SVN, then upload the content to web server manually.
IOW never update on web server directly.

|
|
<H2><A NAME="48"></A>6.4. What advantages do other Clipper compilers have over Harbour?</H2>
|
|
<p>Currently the advantages
|
|
<A HREF="harbour56.html#ClipperCompilers">other Clipper compilers</A> have over Harbour are:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>They are available and working (for various values of "working").</li>
|
|
<li>They are supported.</li>
|
|
<li>They are documented.</li>
|
|
<li>They, to some degree, give you
|
|
<A HREF="harbour11.html#Warranty">someone to blame</A>.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>As time passes most of the above advantages will be eroded. Note that the
|
|
documentation process is well under way and that support is simply a
|
|
<A href="news:comp.lang.clipper">comp.lang.clipper</A> post away.
|
|
The only advantage that won't be eroded is the last one in the list.</p>
|
|
<p>I'm sure that users of
|
|
<A HREF="harbour56.html#ClipperCompilers">other compilers</A>,
|
|
not to mention their authors, feel they have other advantages too. This is
|
|
fine. Harbour isn't an exercise in removing or replacing those compilers,
|
|
Harbour is an effort to complement the
|
|
<A HREF="harbour56.html#ClipperCompilers">list of Clipper compilers</A> with a
|
|
<A HREF="harbour13.html#FreeSoftware">free software</A>
|
|
offering.</p>
