Hey, Lawrence, no need to be so gratuitously silly. You've been around
the programming block for a number of decades, and know damned well what
an *exe is. You also have been using Java just long enough that you
should know what the Java interpreter and compiler (and possibly) other
binary executables are called, even on Linux/UNIX.

Deliberate affected ignorance of Windows can be disregarded from Linux
neophytes - it's part of the discovery process - but it's tiresome from
experienced people who should know better.
