Visual dBase

Visual dBASE is a typeless object oriented language that was originally a descendant of dBASE but now more resembles Self or Smalltalk. Here is the Hello World program in Visual dBASE:

* hello world program
f = new HelloForm()
f.open()
class HelloForm of form
    this.helloText = new Text(this)
    this.helloText.text = "Hello World"
    this.HelloText.width = 20
endclass
