Harbour is a successor of the Clipper, its modernized version.
The development of Clipper was discontinued in 1997, it was DOS-only 16-bit system and did not meet the requirements of the time. So, in 1999 an international group of developers begin to work on a modern, open source, cross-platform Clipper clone. The founder of a Harbour project is Antonio Linares.
