Do ZM EXEs actually exist?
Yes. Any 16-bit MS-DOS target compiler generates MZ executables. FreeDOS is
full of them.
I've also been curious as to what the format is for .TOS binaries (since
GEMDOS has such a similar API to MS-DOS).
Grab one and run it through a hex editor.
Hi,
See my other email. In DOS, MZ=ZM, I guess Microsoft changed course at some
point. They are typically called MZ executables.

I was specifically referring to the specific magic number that would show
up as ZM in a text editor. All the files I've

Hi,
It’s all semantics. Most signatures are MZ, but some old linkers (not sure if
they are even in use) used ZM according to RBIL

I'd suggest using 0xC3 0x00 as a magic number for any non-8086 executable.
Or, for preference, using a 4-byte magic number: 0xC3 0x00 0x00 followed by
a byte giving the supported CPU architecture. Then the logic in the loader
would be:
0xC3 0x00 0x00 suitable architecture -

If you can mark the EXEs as something other than MZ, you could perhaps
make a TSR loader stub that loads an x86 emulator on demand to run EXE
