git mv *.hint -> README.md

There is one exception:

    $ find . -name '*.hint' -execdir git mv '{}' README.md \;
    git statufatal: destination exists, source=1992/albert/albert.hint, destination=1992/albert/README.md

Looking at the two files they differ quite a bit so I've not changed it.
I'll bring this up on GitHub.

+Judge's Remarks:
+
+    To build:
+
+	make jason
+
+    Try:
+
+	./jason
+
+    You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.
+
+    The really amazing part of this is tha it's a text adventure, and there's
+    not a single word in the source that isn't a C keyword or function name,
+    being used as such.
+
+    The interface isn't very tolerant of errors, but you can't really
+    expect that from something this small.
+
+    Of particular interest:  Go ahead, run it through the preprocessor.  You
+    *still* won't see the words that are used in the game.

+
+    TED shroyer came up with the idea that made it possible to hide all
+    the text.  Thanks, TED.  You won.  :)

+    $ ./prog
+    you are in a maze of twisty little passages
+    caves lead:  left forward back
+    you see
+       a lamp
+    > _
+
+    This program is a rather nostalgic little labyrinth game.  Start
+    out by typing "get lamp", then use the direction words "left",
+    "right", "forward", and "back" to explore the caves.  Note that
+    these words can refer to different passages depending on which way
+    you're facing.  "back" always takes you back the way you came.
+    Type "quit" to quit.
+
+    The maze is randomly generated each time you play.  The algorithm
+    ensures that you start at least 6 hops away from the exit.  All
+    passages are two-way.
+
+    (There is a trick, well-known among adventure game fans, to
+    keeping one's bearings in games like this.  Unless you know the
+    trick, it can be very difficult to find your way around.  Try it
+    out first; I'll give away the secret at the bottom of this
+    document.)
+
+    The goal is to collect 8 treasures (plus the lamp) and escape into
+    the sunlight - or moonlight, as the case may be.  After a few
+    minutes, the lamp runs out of oil, and things become perilous.
+
+    If you manage to escape, you score 50 points for your hide, 50
+    points per item, and bonus points for speed.
+
+    Why I think this program is obfuscated:
+
+    * 70% more # symbols than the average entry.
+
+    * Where are all the messages?  The game is downright chatty for
+      only having two string literals ("%d \n" and "Y\n : ! ,.?>").
+
+    * There is exactly one loop in the program, a for loop, and it is
+      clearly the product of a deranged mind.  Running the
+      preprocessor only makes it worse.
+
+    * Microsoft Visual C++ won't even compile this program, even
+      though it is plain ANSI C (*innocent look*) and limits itself to
+      the most standard and portable of the standard library
+      facilities.
+
+    * Most of the whitespace is significant, so attempts to
+      beautify it can easily lead to segmentation faults.
+
+    * Attempts to replace the one-character identifiers with longer,
+      more meaningful names will likewise cause problems.  In fact,
+      simply changing all the Y's to Z's and vice versa results in
+      some unexpected side effects.
+
+    When all warnings are enabled, some compilers express the desire
+    to see a few more parentheses.  I respectfully submit that there are
+    plenty of parentheses in the program (370 in all.)  Besides, any
+    more would put me over the size limit.  gcc also generates a
+    warning about some calculations not being used.  Having just spent
+    19 hours staring at this program, sweating over every character, I
+    swear gcc is wrong.
+
+    The program is formatted as a poem, to make it more readable.
+    I find the plaintive chorus "B?  B?" particularly poignant.
+    Also, smiley faces are formatted flush left.  (If you don't find
+    the game entertaining, see if you can find
+
+        the fish scales              Q)++j<
+        the shooting star         -~- ~ -~i +
+
+    in the source code.)
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+    [GAME STRATEGY SPOILER:  The trick, of course, is to drop items in
+    empty rooms to mark them.  That way you usually know if you're in a
+    room you've seen before.  It greatly aids mapping.]
