PAWN language - Electrifying - 28.09.2018

Pawn is just for SA:MP? if it is not, how can I use pawn for programming others thing not related to SA:MP?

EDIT: I thought It was specially made for SA-MP, you can't use it for anything else. There's other languages you can use for things not related to SA-MP.

Read the link v1kinG just posted.

An introduction to the pawn language and abstract machine from a programmer's perspective was published in the October 1999 issue of Dr. Dobb's Journal —but at the time, the language was called Small.

Wut

It is or was used a lot for Microcontrollers, games (servers/interfaces mostly), and many more.

Pawn even was developed further than the version SAMP uses, so that doesn't make sense at all.

As far i know, PAWN its for Counter Strike 1.6 servers and SA-MP. You cant do anything else with it

Uhm, searching a bit deeper i found this: https://www.compuphase.com/pawn/pawnprojects.htm Seems pawn have other usages but i think its pretty limited rather other languages as C++/Java/C# etc

Edit: NaS beat me to it

In the "about" page on the .exe program, it says it's developed from spookie for SA:MP. I thought it was made special for SAMP.

What .exe? Pawno? That's a IDE not a scripting language.

Actually with pawn you could do almost everything if you get the "host" read it.
Like any programming language
Yes, you could implement the virtual machine in almost any program, just like SAMP did.
