Database tools that behave like or emulate the language and API of the Clipper application circa version 5.x or utilities for xBase products or xBase development in general, or any specific xBase development system in particular. Clipper was a database compiler that compiled dBase III applications into machine code with some extensions. Modern xBase systems usually feature some expanded features vis-a-vis the original Clipper like object orientation, better GUI support and so on, and are largely compatible with each other, at the least in the broader sense. But since a GUI was not a part of the original Clipper specifications the solutions each xBase tool has different and sometimes multiple ways of supporting GUI's.
