AXE (executable compression)
From Just Solve the File Format Problem
AXE is an executable compression utility for DOS, developed by System Enhancement Associates (see ARC).
It compresses EXE files, and COM files (converting them to EXE).
By default, it creates backup files with the filename extension .AXE.
