Executable envelopes refers to a diverse class of files that use a standard executable format, but which were generated in a formulaic way from some original file (which may or may not have itself been executable). They usually consist of a boilerplate decoder section, plus a payload section that could potentially be extracted to a standard format.
Contents |
Executable compression
Refer to Executable compression.
Executable protection
(password protection, obfuscation, authentication, tamper-proofing, expiration, etc.)
Some Executable compression utilities also have features of this type.
(TODO: Populate this section.)
Self-extracting archives
Most self-extracting archive formats are covered (or would be covered) in the article for the corresponding Archiving format.
A few are listed at Archiving#Self-extracting archives, especially if they have their own article.
Self-extracting installers
Self-extracting installer formats are listed at Archiving#Program/App/Applet/Installer specialized archive formats, along with other formats.
Executable documents
(A document in some known format, combined with a viewer for that format.)
Most such formats are covered (or would be covered) in the article for the corresponding document format.
Executable text
(plain text, text with simple markup, simple e-book formats, etc.)
- Asc2Com (MorganSoft) [1]
- AutoCom (REXXCOM) (companion to AutoDoc) [2][3]
- BIGTEXT (Kevin Solway) [4][5]
- BREEZE text to .EXE format (Kevin Solway) (see also Breeze)
- DIZ2EXE (Olan Patrick Barnes) [6]
- DOC2COM (Dan K. Nelson) [7]
- DOC2COM (Jerry DePyper) [8]
- Electronic Text Publishing System, The (Philip P. Kapusta) [9]
- MakeScroll (Eric Gans) [10]
- READMAKE (Bruce Guthrie / Wayne Software) [11]
- SHOW (Gary M. Raymond) [12]
- Simply Docs (SimpleWare / Robert E. Pitcher) [13]
- TEXE
- TextExe (LRC Computing)
- TEXTLIFE (Kevin Solway) [14]
- TurboTXT (by HyperWare, part of ExtraDOS Toolbox) [15]
- TXT2COM (De Trans Software)
- TXT2COM (Keith P. Graham)
- TXT2COM (Prakash.K)
- TXT2COM (Wiering Software)
- TXT2EXE (John De Palma) [16]
- TXTRUN (Sawada) [17]
- WriteMe System, The (Sitting Duck Software) [18]
- XDOC (JauMing Tseng)
- X-Filer (Philip P. Kapusta) [19]
Executable graphics
There are probably a lot of old self-displaying raster graphics formats of this type, e.g. self-running FLI, but they are rarely documented specially.
Executable ANSI Art
(ANSI Art and related formats)
Other executable documents
- Font Mania (REXXCOM) (COM format) [22]
Executable libraries
(Multiple executable files combined into one executable file.)
Compiled scripts
(TODO: Populate this section.)
Transfer-encoded executables
(A file that remains executable despite having had a transfer encoding or the like applied. This is impossible or impractical with most executable formats, unless they are very "raw", as .COM format is.)
- c2t (Jørgen Ibsen)
- com2txt (Naoyuki Nide)
- Com2txt (Dark Stalker)
- COMT
