At least on NT you can execute a program without a .exe suffix but if you create a non executable file name such as a .lnk file then you're liable to crash the OS. I.E.: If you ``ln -s foo foo.exe'' what is created in reality is foo.exe.lnk and when you try to execute that, it won't work.



Hard link then. NT supports hard links, AFAIK.
``ln foo foo.exe''
