==History==
The idea of a free software Clipper compiler had been floating around for a long time and the subject has often cropped up in discussion on comp.lang.clipper. Antonio Linares founded the Harbour project and the implementation was started in March 1999. The name "Harbour" was proposed by Linares, it is a play on a [[Clipper programming languageship|Clipper]] as a type of ship. Harbour is a synonym for port (where ships dock), and Harbour is a port of the Clipper language.
 
In 2009, Harbour was substantially redesigned, mainly by Viktor Szakáts and Przemyslaw Czerpak.
