Hey there,
I'm developping my first plug-in using Plugn Script and angelscript, everything's fine and working (aw, and thanks for making this so easy!), but I cannot understand how to protect my plug-in with some protection =/
I've read about REST request using system() function.. but I can't understand how I do it. =/ I'm not expert in coding and would like some info on how to implement it, that or another way.
Also, I read on manual that output parameters could be used to write automation on the host, how is that obtained in angelscript?
Thank you!

There is indeed no built-in copy protection system, so you'd have to roll your own. Depending on how complex you want it to be, you may have more or less work for it.
There is indeed quite a bit you can achieve using the system command if you need to launch third party tools or native system commands. We can't help much in this regard as we do not such features for copy protection (our copy protection system is just a stupid simple username/key). The only advise I can give is to keep it really simple and user friendly!
For output parameters, you just need to declare them (like input parameters, but they are named "output" instead), and update them from the process callbacks whenever needed. Just beware that it does not work in all DAWs.
