Ohh yeah. Clarion was cool. Unfortunately the people at TopSpeed (coming from Borland Turbo Pascal team) did same mistake with the language as Borland did. They made it commercial instead to open it to the community. Many concepts from clarion has been very sexy (interactive templates, data dictionary, :=: operator 😉)
I learned much in early 90s in the XBase area. The success of open source and the rapidly growing java ecosystem (especially at backend) changed the way we see programming... now Node and JS seem to rule the world. Funny times 🙂
