.A1 File Extension

A .A1 file is a Compiled Free Pascal Archive, created by Free Pascal.

Open with Pascal. Available for Linux, Windows, and Mac.

What is a .A1 file?

An A1 file is a special type of file that is made by a program called the Free Pascal compiler. This happens when the compiler is working on a specific platform known as go321v1. Inside an A1 file, you can expect to find code that was written in a programming language called Pascal, but this code has been compiled. This means it has been turned into a format that a computer can understand and run, but it's not easy for humans to read.

These A1 files are part of a process when working with Pascal code, and they are often temporary. That means they don't need to be kept for a long time. Because of this, there's a special tool called delp that comes with Free Pascal. Delp can automatically find and remove A1 files that are no longer needed, helping to keep the computer's storage clean and organized.

If you have an A1 file and you want to open it, you would typically use the Free Pascal environment, which understands how to handle these files. However, since A1 files contain compiled code, opening them in a standard way like you would a text document won't be very helpful if you're trying to read or edit the code. Instead, these files are more about being used by the computer as part of running Pascal programs.

In summary, if you come across an A1 file, it's related to programming in Pascal, and you can manage these files using the Free Pascal tools, including the delp tool for deleting them when they're not needed anymore.
