check all this out and let you know if I have further questions, or
made a decision.

"Program": American English. Commmonly used in Computer English, too.
In some programming languages (Pascal springs to mind), even a keyword.

"Programme": Proper (British) English. I make it a point in my
university essays to write about "computer programmes", and they
cannot mark it even as a spelling mistake, because I use British
English throughout. ;-)
