Jump to user comments

/eks'ee/ or /eek'see/ or /E-X-E/ An executable binary file.

Some operating systems (notably MS-DOS, VMS, and TWENEX) use

the extension .EXE to mark such files. This usage is also

occasionally found among Unix programmers even though Unix

executables don't have any required suffix.
