 ===== Vulcan ===== ===== Vulcan =====
 Vulcan was a (now dead) .NET evolution to the Visual Objects development environment, developed by GrafX. Vulcan was somewhat different to VO, so X# needs a proper dialect to support the migration of Vulcan applications. Vulcan was a (now dead) .NET evolution to the Visual Objects development environment, developed by GrafX.

 +===== VFP =====

 The Harbour dialect was introduced to support some language features specifically for the Harbour product, an open source compiler for Base applications. (Harbour translates mostly Xbase code to C and compiles it then with C, so it is multi-platform). The Harbour dialect was introduced to support some language features specifically for the Harbour product, an open source compiler for Base applications.
