In AES/ ChaCha modes, some inject the nonce / iv into the file for decryption purposes. This is problematic for executable file encryption, as it is possible to render the executable inoperable by moving a single byte in error. The standard practice is to clearly warn people to zip/tar or otherwise compress the file before encrypting it if it is an executable. There is no mention of anything in Age or Rage.
