C++ file version like .vbs?

C++ is compiled, period. Further, C++ runs on different operating systems using different compilers. So for Windows you get .exe files while for Linux or Unix you get Executable and Linking Format or ELF files. These generally have no file extension, but they are executable -- they are compiled into machine code and linked to the relevant libraries. vbs files, short for visual basic script files, have no equivalent in C++ being ECMAScript files anyhow, as are Javascript files.
