It's been a long time, so I don't remember quite how (I think you have to start at address 100, set up some register values for length, etc, and use the DEBUG N command to name/save it), but you can create a .COM type program file using just DEBUG. Note this is not a COM object, but .COM executable type file for the OS.

Yep - NT will just smack you silly for tryuing that anyway. ExitWindowsEx() is more reliable and much safer.
