> What about making .com extension files?
These are obsolete now. They were basically executable files
that fitted inside a single memory segment of 64Kb on a 8086
processor! As such they cpould iudse a simpler, faster memory
model than .exes
Unless you are using a very old PC you have no need of .com
files. You can of course change the name of a .exe to a .com
if it makes you feel better! :-)
