Improve my 1991/dds alt code (required for clang)

Based on a slight modification to the Makefile the program will now
compile to the same file as if dds.c was being used (a.out).

I updated the README.md with some changes in formatting to do with the
alt code but the file has not been fully corrected or even checked.

+This alternate code allows this entry to work successfully even with clang.
 Unfortunately it's something of a hack or maybe even a kludge.  This however
 seems important because it works well and allows for not messing with the `s`
 string which is quite complicated.  Even changing the length could break
 functionality and indeed the length would have to be longer for this to work
 with clang.
 
-How does it work? The code (which you will see in [dds.c](dds.c)) does a `return
-system(q-6);` which equates to `return system("cc a.c");` but clang by default,

 [LANDER.BAS](LANDER.BAS)) due to a return from `main()` without a return value
 and the use of functions not yet declared.
 
 Now as noted since the string `s` is complicated and to not inadvertently mess
 something up it was changed so that the code uses `system("make a");` and then an
 appropriate rule was added to the Makefile. Thus for the alternative version you
-now need both `make` and `cc`. If you use gcc you can change the `system()` call
-to what was given in this description to get a more authentic feel. If you do
-this you must then run `./a.out` not `./a`! Thus to use the alternative version:

+version.
