Unlikely. But it would be more than the current Zero. It might give
"Starlark" or "Modelica" a run for their money.

I've got a half-dozen legacy projects. Thor and VFX have dozens. The world
outside the US uses a lot more Fox that inside, and GitHub is free/cheap
and an easy distribution mechanism. Or maybe they're on BitBucket or Vault
or Subversion :)

OK, let’s assume that you could wave your wand, and aggregate all of those so 
that they are all recorded as “FoxPro”.

Do you think it would show up even then?

The Y-axis is based on questions. The X-axis is based on GitHub project using 
the language.

Dabo isn’t a language; it’s 100% Python.

Re: Where is the Fox?

2020-07-31 Thread Ted Roche
There's lots of things missing. You get the answer to the questions you ask.

GitHub seems to flag FoxPro projects as "xBase" -- at least that's what
VFX/Thor is. There are also "topics" for VFP, so there's another variation.

StackOverflow, otoh, has separate xBase and FoxPro and "Visual FoxPro" tags.

So, if you are looking at the intersection of two metrics, you'd better
make sure they're the same thing.

Don't those measure how many questions were asked about those languages on
those platforms? Fox is so easy there are fewer questions, and we ask them
on other platforms. That's my spin and I'm sticking to it.
