Outstanding Issues with Visual FoxPro that I know of:

1. WAIT WINDOWS don't display properly.  The graphics are drawn after,
and over, the text.  The text is drawn with gdi32.ExtTextOutA, and the
window appears to be external.  Transgamings Wine doesn't seem to do
Managed Windows, so the WAIT WINDOW actually gets a 'windows border',
with Min/Max/Close buttons.  That's probably the source of the issue -
windows created by VFP to show how long a SELECT is taking display fine,
and without the 'windows border'.

2. No record locking.  Apparently a patch was submitted some time ago,
but wasn't accepted.

3. Window resizing.  I've noticed in the IDE that the window resizing
doesn't work quite right.. not a killer, but a nuisance.


AFAICS, the apps run pretty well.. unfortunately, I haven't had a chance
to test printing, but I know that's worked in the past.
