I've been mostly focusing on the doc/en-en files but I was curious
about Clipper versions (that is for another email).
I observed that there are several places within doc/*.txt where the
term Clipper is used and CA-Cl*pper is others.
Is it an acceptable change to use CA-Cl*pper in all places?

As long as you attribute the trademarked name "Clipper" to the proper
owner of the trademark in the appendix or the forward, it's generally
acceptable to use the trademark.
So, it's perfectly legal to say something like:
Harbour is a superset of Clipper and is backwards compatible with nearly
100% of all Clipper 5.2x or 5.3 code. Most Clipper S'87 code will also
compile and run fine, but may require some modifications to run well.
...and attributed correctly in your document elsewhere...
Everywhere in this documentation, whenever the trademarked name Clipper
is used, it is recognized as a trademark of Computer Associates
Take a look at this web page and scroll down to the bottom to see how
they make it all legal...

You can find millions of examples by googling for "is a trademark of".
