aren't what you want.  But let me heartily recomend Clipper.  
 It compiles 99% of dBase programs and more.  The 2 features I really
 liked of Clipper where that it worked like a real compiler (ie,
 compiled to .obj files, linked to .exe.  Back in the day I used a 3rd
 party incremental linker which saved much time during compiles) but  
 Yes, I used an incremental linker as well ("Blinker" is what it was called
 if I'm not mistaken).  It made a tremendous difference on a 286 :) 
  I used "tlink" (came with Borland compilers if memory serves) for
linking clipper programs.  It was a very good linker.
