PAWN and school project! - Glint - 08.09.2012

Guys can i use PAWN for scripting windows based applications ?

Oh and any ideas for science fair computer programming projects, or maybe you know some sites that gives tips ?

There was some include/plugin/tool for that a while ago, but cant find it right now.
However creating a usual .exe program with pawn will be a pain in the arse, and code for this wont look like a gamemode at all, you can also go for C instead, it will probably be easier and faster to learn than any forced pawn program, as pawn simply is not meant to be used for stand alone programs.

What about robotics, can we use PAWN for programming simple robots ?

Theoretically, yes.
Wouldn't be easy though as a pawn code isn't meant to be used as a program.

I saw on their website that they used PAWN to program an MP3 player, and i thought it maybe is possible to use it for robotics!

Yes but that probably utilizes C as a core.
