You can't run a .cpe on a Yaroze; that's our output format, and you
need a special downloader. (And no, you can't have it.) The Yaroze kit
won't know what to do with it. Joel might have a converter (do you
have a converter, Joel? SN-CPE is the most straightforward of our
specially-impenetrable file formats :=) but that would be part of
CodeWarrior and you'd have to own that first.

If your friend builds a Sony .exe and includes all the binary data in
his linker script then you could conceivably run it on the Yaroze,
provided he ORGs it high enough in memory. Someone here will know the
correct lower bound, I can't remember it offhand. If it expects to
load any files from the CD emulator or the file server then that won't
work; in both cases the Yaroze doesn't have what you need.
