A dBase II compatible database system for DOS initially shipped as FoxBase in 1984 and was then one of the first of the xBase products onto the market. Initially wildly popular with dBase developers but remained and English/Dutch language phenomenon since much like the later OnCMD there was no support for international character sets until after Microsoft had taken over product development almost a decade later, which meant that when competitor Clipper shipped in 1985 it basically ate up the international market.
