You can still use odbc. There is a library (that costs) out there that will do it.
I have a python wrapper that I did for the xbase/xbase64 library that should work with the dbfs. I doubt it will do any good with the indexes though. I didn't really care about .cdx indexes. I made it work ok with clipper .ntx indexes so long as the clipper index doesn't have a conditional filter built in. If you want I can shoot you a tarball of the pieces I used. It's more that a bit crude since I'm not a skilled package maker. On the other hand, I'm using it in a production environment and subject to the limitations have had no problems from the clipper side.
