Sup, in my program I would like some simple .exe games to be called open. I already know how to do this. But is there any way to place the .exe file in a folder in you program (like their is the targets folder etc.) that will go where your program goes? Or if you can't do this, what is the closest thing to it?:apple:

It is not at all clear what you want to do.

Also what is an ".exe file"? Something related to DOS, MS Windows or Vax/VMS I think. Best to ask about those other OSes on other forums

.exe as in a winows executable... but is their a way to add ANY file to my program?

It sounds like what you want is what the .app bundle has been doing for years. Bundle your executable as a proper .app and you won't have issues.
