-.SH NAME
-weasel \- The IOCCC 2018 Implementation of Richard Dawkins's Weasel program
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-\fBweasel\fP [\fI\-r<rate>\fP] [\fI\-m\fP] [\fI\-q\fP] [<\fIchromosomal string\fP>]
-.PP
-\fBweasel.alt\fP [\fI\-r<rate>\fP] [\fI\-m\fP] [\fI\-q\fP] [<\fIchromosomal string\fP>]
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-\fBweasel\fP is an obfuscated implementation of Richard Dawkins' \fIWeasel program\fP.
-According to Wikipedia in chapter three of his book \fIThe Blind Watchmaker\fP Dawkins wrote:
-.PP
-.RS
-I don't know who it was first pointed out that, given enough time,
-a monkey bashing away at random on a typewriter could produce all
-the works of Shakespeare. The operative phrase is, of course, given
-enough time. Let us limit the task facing our monkey somewhat.
-Suppose that he has to produce, not the complete works of Shakespeare
-but just the short sentence 'Methinks it is like a weasel', and we
-shall make it relatively easy by giving him a typewriter with a
-restricted keyboard, one with just the 26 (capital) letters, and
-a space bar. How long will he take to write this one little sentence?
-.RE
-.PP
-He refers to the \fIInfinite Monkey Theorem\fP in particular and as he
-points out it is \fBgiven enough time.\fP The weasel program uses a \fIgenetic
-algorithm (GA)\fP to intelligently come to a conclusion but this implementation
-has several additions: \fBtwo Easter eggs,\fP a \fBquiet output mode,\fP
-an \fBoption to change the mutation rate\fP as well as the ability to
-\fBspecify the chromosomal string.\fP
-Furthermore the keyboard isn't as limited as Dawkins's implementation.
-The \fBweasel.alt\fP keyboard is a more limited keyboard but not
-as limited as Dawkins's Weasel program keyboard.
-.SH OPTIONS
-.PP
-\fB\-r\fP\fI<rate>\fP
-This sets the mutation rate to \fI<rate>\fP; valid range is 1 through 100.
-Anything outside this range will disable the genetic algorithm and simulate
-a monkey in front of a typewriter.
-If a valid mutation rate is set after this then the monkey typewriter mode
-will be disabled but if monkey mode has been explicitly requested by the
-\fB\-m\fP option the mutation rate is ignored.
-Note that there cannot be a space between the \fB\-r\fP and \fI<rate>\fP.
-The default is 1; valid range is >= 1 && <= 100.
-.PP
-\fB\-m\fP
-Set monkey mode. This disables the genetic algorithm and is disables the
-mutation rate entirely; instead it will pseudo-randomly select a character
-from the keyboard in every offspring for every generation and selection
-will not take place: parents are simply the first two offspring
-regardless of their fitness score. Once this is enabled you
-cannot disable it: be wary of the typing monkeys!
-.PP
-\fB\-q\fP
-Quiet output.
-Only display settings like mutation rate, quiet output,
-target string and the final answer - if it comes to one.
-Just like monkey mode you cannot disable this once it's been enabled.
-.PP
-\fB--\fP
-Disable parsing of additional options (but not target strings); see
-.B EXAMPLES
-for a subtle point.
-.SH EXIT STATUS
-On error of any kind (including reaching the maximum number of attempts)
-return 1; otherwise return 0.
-.SH BUGS
-Bugs? What's this? :) Any bugs are actually insolent monkeys tampering
-with the program! But if you insist I do include errata on my website.
-.SH EXAMPLES
-.PP
-\fBweasel\fP
-.PP
-.NF
-Using the GA with the default mutation rate of 1 and output mode (verbose)
-look for the default string in Hawkins's Weasel program; note that in
-all cases the string to be found is capitalised.
-.FI
-.PP
-\fBweasel \-qr5
-weasel \-q \-r5\fP
-.NF
-.PP
-Enables quiet output and sets a mutation rate of 5.
-.PP
-.FI
-\fBweasel \-rqr10\fP
-.NF
-.PP
-First sets an invalid mutation rate, then enables quiet output and
-finally sets (a valid) mutation rate of 10.
-.FI
-.PP
-.NF
-\fBweasel \-m 'I AM A MONKEY TYPING'\fP
-.PP
-.FI
-Simulate a monkey typing at the typewriter trying to type out the
-string \fBI AM A MONKEY TYPING\fP without quotes. Note that this will
-take some time almost assuredly and you might fall asleep before
-the monkey succeeds. Here you would see all the attempts because
-quiet output was not requested.
-.PP
-\fBweasel I AM NOT A MONKEY\fP
-.PP
-.NF
-Using the GA find the final string specified (this always happens);
-because the string wasn't quoted the program will have seen each word
-as a separate argument and thus it would search for \fBMONKEY\fP.
-.FI
-.PP
-\fBweasel '"WEASEL"'\fP
-.PP
-.NF
-Search for the string \fB"WEASEL"\fP including double quotes ("s).
-.FI
-.PP
-\fBweasel "'WEASEL'"\fP
-.PP
-.NF
-Search for the string \fB'WEASEL'\fP including the single quotes ('s).
-.FI
-.PP
-\fBweasel \-q \-r5 \-\- \-r10\fP
-.PP
-.NF
-Enable quiet output, set mutation rate to 5, disable further option parsing
-and set target string to \fB-r10\fP (literally because option parsing was disabled).
-.FI
-.PP
-\fBweasel \-r5\-q \-\- \-r10\fP
-.PP
-Set mutation rate to 5, enable quiet output, disable further parsing of
-options and set target string to \fB-r10\fP (literally - because option parsing
-was disabled as above). Observe that here the \fB-r5-q\fP doesn't prevent the
-quiet output from being enabled; on the other hand the options
-\fB-r5- -q -- -r10\fP would!

+The author wrote the following:
+
+- Despite appearances, it does not handle numbers in hex, or provide
+  a `curses(3)`-based interface.
+
+- The expected input format is zero or more lines of space-separated
+  integers. If other characters appear in the input, it will either
+  reject the input entirely and exit with a non-zero status, or skip
+  number(s) adjacent to the non-digit characters, depending on where the
+  characters appear. Tabs and multiple consecutive spaces are handled
+  correctly, however.
+
+- Individual lines of input longer than `0x3543 - 1` bytes will be
+  split and processed as if they were multiple lines of input, which can
+  produce incorrect results. This magic number's significance is
+  described earlier.
+
+- The algorithm expects its input to represent a fully connected graph.
+  While the output is otherwise topologically sorted, if there are nodes
+  completely unconnected to the rest of the graph (with or without
+  self-cycles), they will be output as soon as they are processed --
+  this means that, when there are disconnected nodes, reordering the
+  input lines can produce different output. Addressing this by adding
+  another pass is would put the program over the size limit.
+
+- While the node IDs don't need to be consecutive or start at 0, the
+  implementation doesn't have special handling for sparse graphs. If you
+  give it a graph with nodes numbered 0 and 2147483647, it will attempt
+  to allocate sufficient memory (potentially around 32 GB) for the
+  entire range of graph nodes, even if those are the only ones. If
+  memory allocation returns NULL, it will gracefully exit, otherwise it
+  will succeed, eventually, perhaps after a great deal of swapping.
+
+- Node IDs >= 2147483648 will cause the program to print an error
+  message and exit with a non-zero status. This shrinks the code that
+  detects overflowing the array size by a bit.
+
+- A very large group of nodes in a cycle can cause a stack overflow.
+  This typically takes over 100,000 nodes, and depends on the order the
+  nodes are visited. Addressing this would put the program over the size
+  limit.
+
+- The implementation depends on the characters `'0'`, `'1'`, ... `'9'` having
+  the values `48` through `57`, rather than using `isdigit(3)`. As noted above,
+  this program has nothing to do with a hand.
