The fact that he even mentions Filepro is a plus.  How about the other
products that we use daily with filepro that don't even mention filepro in
there literature.  If they expressed and interest in vending or displaying
we would welcome them with open arms.

Well, to someone who already knows filePro, it's obvious that the
screenshots are of filePro.  But, the only mentions of filePro itself
are a couple of references like

     Whether your character application enables the user to move freely
     through all fields on the screen while editing (like filePro) or it
     requires the user to specify a field in order to edit it (by entering
     a number, for example, like Appgen), as long as the placement of the
     fields on the screen is static, FineLine Reface should support it.

The only statement I would consider as "promoting" filePro is:

     Applications created with database packages like filePro or Appgen
     are great candidates for refacing since there is already a set of
     rules and standards put into place by the database software (Reface
     has been tested extensively with filePro, and includes support for
     features included in Appgen).

According to Google, this is the only page on their site that even has
the word "filePro" in it.
