Just one word, Lorenzo, please consider the sutiation, in which I (as old 
Clipper programer) used to use ":=". 
I think in today world, in wich GUI and IDE and RAD (rapid app. devel.) are 
the most common used by young programmers (who remember MultiEdit? - Przemek, 
don't answer). In my opinion changing ":=" to "=" is not necessary. If 
someone wants to learn Harbour, then he will learn. But if someone can't make 
a app without GUI IDE or sth. else, then ..... 
GUI/IDE should help to create apps, but not be the only one.

Some times ago I found AutoIT Script language, very nice for Windows.With it I 
found very nice source code editor, SciTE. Just think, what would be, if I 
ask to this group (specialy private to Przemek) for making some changes in 
Harbour to make it nice look in SciTE. I don't want to think.
But look at http://groups.google.com/group/scite-interest/web/extras?pli=1
there is a lot of files to make SciTE works with a lot of languages.

I think, that's a better way to improve the acceptance of the language.
