+
+[Cody](#cody) fixed the code so that the game can play automatically like it
+once did. The problem is that it expects a certain file name which was
+`sinon.c`. The code now refers to `prog.c`.
+
+Cody also added the [try.sh](2014/sinon/try.sh) script which is an improvement
+over what was once suggested in that when it's over it will ask you if you wish
+to try again, say because of a jam (see the README.md file for details).
