LEXEM is an executable compression utility for DOS. Little is known about it, and no copies of it have been found. It is Japanese-centric.
It was developed by Teddy Matsumoto[1]. It is a predecessor of DIET.

[edit] Discussion
DIET v1.00's documentation says that DIET "is an outgrowth of LEXEM," and that its "method of compression is similar to Lexem093.exe with @ switch."
[edit] Software
Decompression:
- XOE33C.ZIP → X-OPEN (XO.EXE) - Claims to decompress LEXEM-compressed files
It's possible that other multi-format decompressors would work; see Executable compression#Decompression software.
