TEXE is a DOS utility for creating an EXE file that, when executed, displays a text document in a full-screen viewer. It was developed by Raymond Payette.

The original text file can be recovered by the TEXTRACT.EXE utility included with the software.

[edit] Identification

For files generated by TEXE v1.0, the ASCII string "Copyright (c) 1991 Raymond Payette" appears at offset 13926. (At least, that seems to be what TEXTRACT.EXE looks for.)
