NOTE: The above information was gleaned from the Norton Guide
Clipper 5.0a system. I compiled this as a quick reference in
an endeavor to learn quickly what 5.0 has to offer in the way
of new commands, functions, statements and compatibilities. I
did this in about an hour and it is subject to error. If any
of you find some, let me know so we can keep this up to date!
Enjoy and see you all here in Orlando at DevCon!
