Hi,
 I wonder from the first time I let my eyes on this project, what the
EXE file support in the kernel configuration means?  I simply don't see
any way of running a DOS .EXE executable in ELKS. Maybe if it was a COM
file but even then we should emulate all the DOS _system_ calls. Am I
missing something bigger here, or we should just remove it from the
tree?
