A .OW file is a Free Pascal 1.0.x Compiled Object, created by Free Pascal.

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

What is a .OW file?

An .OW file is a special type of computer file that is made using a program called Free Pascal, specifically the version 1.0.x. Free Pascal is a tool that helps programmers write and create software in a programming language known as Pascal. When programmers write their code, it's in a form that humans can understand, but computers need it in a different form to be able to run it. This is where the .OW file comes in.

The .OW file contains the programmer's original code, but it has been transformed (or compiled) into a form that the computer can start to understand. This process is a bit like translating a book from one language to another. The .OW file is one piece of the puzzle in making a complete software program that can run on your computer. After the code is compiled into .OW files, Free Pascal takes all these pieces and links them together, like putting together a jigsaw puzzle, to create a final executable program. This final program is what you can open and run on your computer to do specific tasks, like writing a document or playing a game.

To open or work with an .OW file, you would typically use the Free Pascal program itself. Since the .OW file is specifically created by Free Pascal version 1.0.x, it's designed to be opened and managed within that environment. So, if you're a programmer working with Pascal language, you would use Free Pascal to open, create, or modify .OW files as part of your process in developing software. For most people who aren't developing software, .OW files won't be something you'll need to open or interact with directly.
