About Clipper

Clipper was created in 1985 by Nantucket Corporation to provide a powerful tool for developing database applications on the DOS operating system. It gained popularity for its ability to compile dBase code into executable files, offering enhanced performance and functionality.

Clipper's strengths included efficient database management, robust performance, and ease of use for developing DOS-based applications. Its weaknesses were limited graphical capabilities and dependency on the DOS environment. Competitors included dBase, FoxPro, and Paradox.
