The only known version is 2.00. PMexe does not seem to have been used very much. No files made by it have been found in the wild.

[edit] Identification
Files start with the bytes in the PMEXE2.COM file, aside from some padding at the end of the file.
They start with bytes (hex) 18 52, have "-pms-" at offset 2, and a message starting with "PMexe" at offset 14.
Compare to PMsfx#Identification.
[edit] Software
- PMexe: pm-utils.pma → PMEXE2.*
