Er, it's unlikely to be a Linux binary if it's an EXE file. EXE
is a CP/M, MS-DOS, and now Win32 executable file format.

Getting senile, Richard? CP/M-80, at one time the world's most
widely used operating system, used a .com extension. CP/M-86
used .cmd.

Gettng senile, Jack? Linux executable binaries normally have no
extension, and are made executable by a file characteristic. EXE
is a MS-DOS and Winders executable format.

How does this correct what Jack wrote?
