hacking tools are more than likely going to be coded in c++ rather than c, due to the winapi. however, if the tools are focues on unix, c might be a better solution.

There's A LOT more stuff that can be written in C other than Unix, lol. Unix isn't the only OS that was written in C, or at least had something to do with it. There's a lot of stuff on Windows that was written in C and then there's Linux, which was almost entirely written in C. In fact, there was a point in time where pretty much everything was written in C, lol.
