Well, I realise this was never a C-help forum. But over the last few months I downloaded some plugins which were written in C++.

As I am into C++ myself I'm interested into learning to script those plugins myself. I downloaded the SDK but don't really know what's next. Do I use a C-compile program? Because none of the plugins come in .cpp or .exe or any of those forms, which would make them unusable in Linux.

For example this comes up in the SDK package

Код:

 Parameters:
   i = integer
   f = float value
   s = string
   v = variable
   p = string var (GetPlayerName etc.)

What is the exact difference between a p and an s? Does it make any difference for a compiler?

So in short: what steps do I need to take to learn to script plugins after heaving learned C++?
