Thanks

Pretty much anything (a generalization of course), except maybe web-based applications. Many of the stand-alone workhorse programs you find in Windows (.exe) and Linux are coded in C or it's descendants (C++, C#). Much of Windows itself is coded in C and C++.

I believe it is pretty much your standard base language for compiled executables, though more so with C++ and C# nowadays.

Sweet Thanks.

So I can make the installation file and the actual file itself?
