Remove hint.html and index.html
As per discussions on GitHub the index.html and hint.html files should be deleted in favour of README.md files (from any .text/.txt/.markdown/.md files which will be turned into README.md in an upcoming commit).

<h3>To build:</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<pre><code>make
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>To run:</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<pre><code>./prog > foo.c
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Try:</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<pre><code>echo 'Want to hear me beep?' | ./prog > audio_file.raw
|
||||
|
||||
echo 'No. I want chocolate!' | ./prog | mplayer -demuxer rawaudio -
|
||||
</code></pre>
|

|

<h3>Selected Judges Remarks:</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>This program sets a new tone for obfuscation. But do you understand
|
||||
what it says about obfuscation? Perhaps:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<pre><code>./prog < prog.c > prog.raw
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>might speak to your coding style? If not, then perhaps:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<pre><code>./prog < remarks.markdown | mplayer -demuxer rawaudio -
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>might help? :-)</p>

<h3>Remarks</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>This program converts ascii text to morse audio file and vice versa. As far as
|
||||
I can tell, there are at least six chocolate references in this program.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>This program can convert text to morse to a raw 44.1kHz stereo audio file.
|
||||
Via streaming to mplayer, you can listen to the morse audio.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Don’t forget the last ‘-’ as it makes mplayer read from stdin.)</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Convert audio file with morse signals to text</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<pre><code>$ ./prog e < audio_file.raw
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>or alternatively pass a .wav file as input.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The preferred input format 44.1kHz stereo, but it does a decent job on mono
|
||||
input and different frequencies as well.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Portability</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The program is portable to most platforms. The only system dependency is that
|
||||
the program relies on writing binary data to stdout.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Microsoft compilers adds a carriage return to newlines, and to compile the
|
||||
program with this platform, the following line can be added after the main
|
||||
declaration in order for the program to run correctly:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<pre><code>_setmode(_fileno(stdout), 0x8000);
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Known Issues</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The program uses a quite simple algorithm for detecting tone on and off events
|
||||
in the morse signal. Hence the program does not work well with noisy input
|
||||
signals. I have tested it with several samples of man made morse recordings as
|
||||
well as computer generated ones.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Generally, any recording from ham radio transmissions does not decode due to
|
||||
noise and echoes. Other man made recordings may decode, but some characters
|
||||
can be incorrect due to too big variation in length of tones and pauses.
|
||||
However I found some man made recordings on that decode reasonable well.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>If a recording don’t decode, you could try to pre-process the input with a
|
||||
narrow bandpass filter on the frequency of the transmission.</p>
