Check the Header: Inspect the first bytes in a hex viewer.
- PPU magic bytes indicate a Pascal unit.
- Readable text suggests a config file.
- Random binary implies a compiled file.
Use the Original Software: The original program is usually required. Try Free Pascal (by FPC Development Team) or an emulator; if uncertain, ask the sender.
