[Cody Boone Ferguson](/winners.html#Cody_Boone_Ferguson) made this safer by
using `fgets()` instead of `gets()`. This avoids a potentially alarming warning
at linking or runtime. Thank you Cody for your assistance!

The Makefile uses several `-D` defines. The following is is a list of the macros
that may be changed:
-DM=<max bet allowed>
-DN=<52 * number of decks used>
-DX=<how to seed the rand() generator>
- `-DM=<max bet allowed>`
- `-DN=<52 * number of decks used>`
- `-DX=<how to seed the rand() generator>`
The macro `V` should remain `void`.

This is a blackjack program. It does splits, doubling down,
insurance, etc.

As best I can figure, it should be ANSI-compliant, as well as
portable to BSD & sysV (as well as the irritating compiler I
was using which assumes `x=*p++` means `x*=p++`!). It is
reasonably robust in its error handling---it won't let you
split, double, etc. unless you actually have the cash, etc. To
terminate the program, hit EOF or type 0 or a negative number
for you wager.

The way it deals with splits is particularly cool (IMHO). You
can split many times, and it will show all hands as they are
played.
