===Turbo Pascal for Windows=== Two versions named "Turbo Pascal for Windows" (TPW), for [[Windows 3.1x|Windows 3.x]], were released: TPW 1.0, based on Turbo Pascal 6 but released about 2 years later, and 1.5, released after Turbo Pascal 7; they were succeeded by Borland Pascal 7, which had Windows support. The Windows compiler in Pascal 7 was titled ''Borland Pascal for Windows''. Both versions built Windows-compatible programs, and featured a Windows-based IDE, as opposed to the DOS-based IDE in Turbo Pascal. The IDE and editor commands conformed to the Microsoft Windows user interface guidelines instead of the classic TP user interface. The support for Windows programs required the [[Object Windows Library]] (OWL), similar but not identical to that for the first release of [[Borland C++]], and radically different from the earlier DOS [[Turbo Vision]] environment. Turbo Pascal was superseded for the Windows platform by [[Delphi (software)|Delphi]]; the Delphi compiler can produce console programs and [[graphical user interface]] (GUI) applications, so that using Turbo and Borland Pascal became unnecessary.
