Pawn

As a software review, Pawn's embedded scripting language is highly recommended for its ability to extend applications. This language boasts a small footprint with inherent support for automatons and state machines. Additionally, quick execution of the P-code and a good interface to "native" functions make Pawn an ideal scripting language for multimedia applications, games, and embedded software that require scripting.

One of Pawn's key strengths is its optimized P-code or "bytecode" interpreter, which is programmed in assembler for both Windows and Linux. This interpreter is designed to perform at peak performance providing smooth and rapid execution of code. For Windows and Linux users, there is even a JIT compiler which further boosts the speed and performance of the interpreter.

Another great benefit of Pawn is the inclusion of the full source code, providing users with the opportunity to make changes, customizations, and improvements as needed. With these features and benefits, Pawn is highly recommended for users who require a robust and efficient scripting language for their applications.
