NOTE: this is just one way to fix the problem described below but it can
be modified - perhaps greatly changed - or rejected and done
differently. That being said it does isolate the entries that can be
modified except for the one by Simon Cooper as I had intended to do all
entries before a commit but I am too tired to continue and there are
more important things to be done for the IOCCC (hopefully later today).
I don't mind but I wanted to save Landon some of the work as I started
the problem even though all with good intention after Landon noted he
wanted to thank those in the README.md files.

First I would like to also apologise to any previous winners if there
was upset or concern; this was all done with the best intentions and I
know that it was a fine line but the judges' goal is to make it so
previous entries do work in modern systems so that everyone can enjoy
them. Still I am sorry if I caused any offence or anything else! I
actually agree with the situation and I had been wondering about how to
go about it too. Now for the rationale behind this update.

A couple previous winners have voiced concern about the way the thank
you notes are displayed in the README.md files I have started the work
to save Landon some of the trouble as although it was with good
intentions (and based on the note that Landon wanted to thank those who
fixed an entry) I started the problem so it seems only right that I help
rectify it. I also agree with the problem and had thought of it before,
even thinking that in some entries it needs not have any reference to
anyone but the winner! This commit has removed the thank you notes from
several entries and added a THANKS.md file.

The THANKS.md file has the rest of the entries that were fixed as well
which should if nothing else help isolate the entries that need to be
modified. Some entries actually referred to me but were not a thank you
note due to a fix; some were from winners themselves for instance.

Note that I did not update the bugs.md file or any other file that might
refer to these things in the README.md files. The bugs.md for instance
refers to adding credits to those who fix problems or provide missing
links or files to the respective README.md files and this will have to
change once the way this is done is finalised. But hopefully this is a
help to Landon so that he may also focus on the important jprint tool in
the mkiocccentry repo.

[Cody Boone Ferguson](/winners.html#Cody_Boone_Ferguson) fixed this to work
under macOS. The fix was to not use implicit `int`s in the `read()` function as
it once did. Instead the second arg is a `void *`. In the `read()` function
(which actually calls `write(2)`) the `i` (which is the `void *`) has to be cast
to an `int`. This solves the problem. Thank you Cody for your assistance!

[Yusuke Endoh](/winners.html#Yusuke_Endoh) provided a patch to get this to
not issue crash and [Cody Boone Ferguson](/winners.html#Cody_Boone_Ferguson)
fixed this to work with macOS (it printed the string `H????` in a seemingly
infinite loop of printing more and more `?`s).
The problem with the crash is that it destructively rewrites string literals but
with `strdup()` it's safe.
For macOS it's because there was no prototype for `execlp()` and macOS has
problems with missing prototypes for some functions (this was also seen when
Cody fixed [1984/anonymous](/1984/anonymous/anonymous.c) for macOS as well
though that fix was more complicated). Ironically this fix was discovered
through linux!
NOTE: originally this entry did not print a newline prior to returning to the
shell, after the output (despite having `\n` in the string - why?) but to make
it more friendly to users Cody made it print a `\n` prior to returning to the
shell.

We would like to extend our gratitude to various people - some previous winners,
some not - for fixes to the following entries.
[Cody Boone Ferguson](/winners.html#Cody_Boone_Ferguson) fixed many entries so
that they worked in modern systems. He also added several scripts to showcase
entries and he provided some fun remarks and try commands and questions to
ponder.
Cody also spent a great deal of time and effort fixing formatting of the
README.md files as well as the many typo and consistency fixes, though this is
currently (as of 6 June 2023) a work in progress.
He also provided some alternate versions sometimes as a fix or enhancement (a
good example is when the entry moved too fast due to faster computers but this
is not the only type of alternate version) and other times for some other
reason. However as this is part of the respective entries we have kept them in
the README.md files.
Thank you Cody!
[Yusuke Endoh](/winners.html#Yusuke_Endoh) provided fixes to quite a few
entries as well though at this time he is unaware of it :-) Thank you Yusuke!

Simon Cooper fixed an entry as well which will be noted in the respective entry.

for each entry modified. As Misha is already noted above the entry is not listed

Cody provided an alternate version based on the author's remarks. See the
README.md for details.
## [1989/paul](1989/paul/paul.c) ([README.md](1989/paul/README.md]))
[Cody Boone Ferguson](/winners.html#Cody_Boone_Ferguson) fixed a segfault under
macOS. The problem was that the int (from `#define f`) should be a long. This
became apparent when he was using lldb and saw that the type of a pointer was
long. Thank you Cody for your assistance!
## [1989/robison](1989/robison/robison.c) ([README.md](1989/robison/README.md]))
Yusuke Endoh fixed this to compile under modern systems.
## [1989/tromp](1989/tromp/tromp.c) ([README.md](1989/tromp/README.md]))
We used a patch from [Yusuke Endoh](/winners.html#Yusuke_Endoh)
to get this to compile under gcc. Thank you Yusuke for your assistance!
[Cody Boone Ferguson](/winners.html#Cody_Boone_Ferguson) got this to work with
clang by further changing the variable `a` to be not the third argument to
`main()` and instead be a variable declared in `main()`.
Cody also bug fixed it so that the high score file would work (it was not even
being created) and after this making sure the terminal stayed sane (the letter
`u` could not be typed and echo was disabled outright after the segfault fix /
high score file was reinstated). We thank you for your assistance Cody (he
cynically notes that he did it because tetris just has to work)!
## [1989/westley](1989/westley/westley.c) ([README.md](1989/westley/README.md]))
Cody got this to partly work with clang. As there are some important notes on
this in the README.md file we have left the details in that file, at least for
now. Perhaps the [bugs.md](bugs.md) file is a better place but this can be
decided later.
## [1990/baruch](1990/baruch/baruch.c) ([README.md](1990/baruch/README.md]))
Cody added an alternate version which allows certain compilers to compile the
code, based on the author's remarks.
## [1990/cmills](1990/cmills/cmills.c) ([README.md](1990/cmills/README.md]))
Yusuke got this to work in modern systems (it resulted in a bus error).
To prevent alarming warnings at linking or runtime Cody made the entry use
`fgets()` rather than `gets()`. He notes that another option would have been to
redirect `stderr` to `/dev/null` but he did not think of that at the time.
For the original code see the [1992 archive](/archive/archive-1990.tar.bz2).
## [1990/dds](1990/dds/dds.c) ([README.md](1990/dds/README.md]))
[Yusuke Endoh](/winners.html#Yusuke_Endoh) fixed this for modern systems. Thank
you Yusuke!
[Cody Boone Ferguson](/winners.html#Cody_Boone_Ferguson) removed the erroneous
prototype to `fopen()` and made this use `fgets()` instead of `gets()` to make
it safer and to prevent an annoying and potentially alarming warning at
compiling and/or linking and/or runtime. Thank you Cody for your assistance!
## [1990/jaw](1990/jaw/jaw.c) ([README.md](1990/jaw/README.md]))
[Cody Boone Ferguson](/winners.html#Cody_Boone_Ferguson) fixed the script to
work properly in modern environments (to do with PATH not having '.' in it). He
notes that with an invocation in the try section will with macOS show
what appears to be an error message but is actually okay. He gives more
information in the [bugs.md](/bugs.md) file. Thank you Cody for the help and
notes!
NOTE: as `btoa` is not common we used a ruby script from [Yusuke
Endoh](/winners.html#Yusuke_Endoh). Thank you Yusuke for your implementation of
`btoa`!
