I have toyed with xHarbour from time to time but always wanted to move my
program (it is huge) to linux. Support info under Linux is a bit sparse

I could not afford the time to reinvent bits of the wheel. I also use
several libraries, including Page Script. At worst I can continue to use
Win98 as I do now, under vmware, alongside XP.
