Proper format fix 1987/korn/README.md
I didn't want to look at it properly (and certainly did not want to read it) without seeing if I could figure out what it did on visual inspection (as the judges say very few can) as there are spoilers. I was able to so I now have no problem going through the file properly.

Several points are important to understand in this program:
|
||||
|
||||
1) What is the symbol 'unix' and what is its value in the program?
|
||||
Clearly 'unix' is not a function, and since 'unix' is not declared
|
||||
to be a data type (such as int, char, struct foo, enum, ...)
|
||||
what must 'unix' be?

x[3] *(x+3) *(3+x)
