.exe has a stack. It can be any size. It has a data segmen and a code
segment. .com cannot be more than 64k, code and data are in the same
segment.
For any "real" program, use exe . If you need something really simple
and small, use com.

I dunno. I don't think you can tho, since djgpp makes 32 bit exes.
