Great job Michael.
I like your way of writing. Especially, I wish to borrow your words...

Most every programming language after Clipper was influenced by it and owe it including: Visual Basic, Java, .Net and Python. Many find that once your start using the modern version Clipper (AKA xHarbour) there is no going back for you. Everything else will be too much effort and too many lines of code to get the same results.
East or West HMG is the Best.
South or North HMG is worth.
...the possibilities are endless.

Re: HMG Quickstart
Interesting, clipper was great, now has a good successors and see that the progress in the work with databases, sqlite and mysql work perfectly, but the author has put an example for the use of Oracle database, honestly, I expected a more natural approach and not through ODBC, or I hope better

Rathinagiri, please feel free to quote me. I'll be updating this material more in time.
dragancesu,
>> I expected a more natural approach and not through ODBC
I agree with you. The most "natural" approach to connect to Oracle would be via an OCI based container. xharbour.com does sell one (SQLRDD). The most "common" way may be ODBC. There is even an ADORDD library out there. There are many ways to connect to Oracle with HMG. That is a great thing!
