From 44f311c91c6353b58d3015c7248a61254a307f0f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cody Boone Ferguson <53008573+xexyl@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Wed, 22 Nov 2023 05:00:20 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Slight clarification in 1985/lycklama I believe that entries that alt versions are recommended to try first should say what it looks like in modern systems so much as what it looked like with systems of the time it was published. Other entries with this have to be located as well so I've put it in the todo.md file too. --- 1985/lycklama/README.md | 6 +++--- todo.md | 7 ++++++- 2 files changed, 9 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/1985/lycklama/README.md b/1985/lycklama/README.md index 61b3d8e32..984b319fd 100644 --- a/1985/lycklama/README.md +++ b/1985/lycklama/README.md @@ -18,9 +18,9 @@ see below and the [original code](#original-code) section. ### Try: This alternate version, which we recommend you you try first, prior to the -original, so that you can see what it does in modern systems, slows down the -output which will provide more fun output.
