.exe is an ELF executable (can be much bigger than what is loaded on
the target. On some targets ELF can be loaded directly but not all
sections in an ELF file are loaded, e.g., debugging sections
or the symbol table are not).
.ralf is the binary that you download on the executable. The format is
target dependent. On a target that can load ELF .ralf and .exe may
be identical or .ralf may be a stripped-down version. On other
targets .ralf may be a pure binary or it may be composed of a pure
binary with a prepended 'mini-loader'.
.num is a symbol listing (output of 'nm')
