Format and link fix 2004/arachnid
Fix format of README.md file. I wanted to say that the author is a sociopath :-) for using 'w', 'a', 's' and 'd' but that's not right in the README.md (the judges put something amusing there about it anyway) so I'm doing it here instead. :-) Okay he's not really but the navigation is difficult to vi users as the judges point out. Still a very fun game and I didn't get lost! Fix dead link via Internet Wayback Machine. Renamed arachnid.info to arachnid.txt. I hope this helps with rendering later on so that browsers can also view it. There are other entries where it might have been good to consider this but I did not think of it at the time.

## Judges' remarks:
|

|

The fun part comes when you realize that the maze scrolls. The overall
|
||||
visual effect is quite pleasing (at least on some displays), and, well,
|
||||
it's a lot of fun.
|
||||
|
||||
Navigation is through the use of the "wasd" inverted-T formation on

Qwerty keyboards. Rogue players, vi users, and Dvorak typists are

## Author's remarks:
|

|

This program accepts ASCII formatted mazes as input, and renders
|
||||
them onscreen for the user to explore, complete with Line Of Sight
|
||||
- you cannot see parts of the maze your avatar (the '@') could not
|

them on screen for the user to explore, complete with Line Of Sight
|
||||
\- you cannot see parts of the maze your avatar (the `@`) could not
|
||||
have seen.
|
||||
|
||||
The maze files will be interpreted with spaces ' ' as gaps, tilde
|
||||
'~' symbols (if any) as exits (which get represented as a NetHack
|
||||
style '<' once loaded), and any other characters as walls.

The maze files will be interpreted with spaces `' '` as gaps, tilde
|

`~` symbols (if any) as exits (which get represented as a

||||
[NetHack](https://www.nethack.org) style `<` once loaded), and any other
|
||||
characters as walls.
|
||||
|
||||
Feed the program its own source for a default maze. Running it with
|
||||
no command line parameters will do this. In a nice symmetry, the
|
||||
character constant '~' that recognises exits to input mazes itself
|
||||
forms the exit to the default maze. Another maze, 'maze1' has also
|
||||
been provided. This maze is 255x255, about the largest maze supported,
|
||||
for the particularaly insane maze explorers out there.
