Clipper! yes that was the first language I used professionally. I tell the younger guys that before IDE's and flat memory models were around, when you programmed, you went looking to buy three things. 1. Language/Compiler 2. Linker 3. Editor And you will spend just as much time in the linker file (segmented memory back then) as you did coding. The newer tools are just light years ahead of where they started back then. Its one area I will never look back at and wish it was still around.
