-
- The EXECOM utility is copyrighted, and may not be distributed in modified
- form or without the original documentation and files. Subject to those
- limitations, it may be freely distributed. No fee may be charged for such
- duplication, aside from a disk copying fee (if applicable) of not more than
- $10.00. EXECOM may also be modified by you, for your own use only.
-
- The EXECOM utility is a replacement for the EXE2BIN program that used to be
- distributed with DOS.
-
- EXECOM is less powerful than EXE2BIN in that it does not support segment
- fixups. Most people will never notice this difference.
-
- EXECOM is different than EXE2BIN in that it produces .COM files instead of
- .BIN files by default, and in that it deletes the original .EXE file if
- successful, so you don't run the wrong program by mistake.
-
- EXECOM is better than EXE2BIN because: it's smaller, it's faster (especially
- for larger files), it comes with source code, and... it's free.
-
- Acknowledgements: EXECOM was based, in a large part, on Chris Dunford's
- EXE2COM utility, which was written in C.
