Now that we have the original code in lycklama.orig.c we can have what
would more appropriately be an alternate version in lycklama.alt.c which
is now done.
Typo fix was really unfortunate: it was in an example command to try
which would have failed to work as the name was wrong.
With a tip from Yusuke Endoh I noticed that if you slow down the call to
write() you see some fun output. Now to make it as close to possible as
the original (there already is alt code! - mostly for fun display) I
don't call usleep() unless the macro Z is not 0. This way someone can
do:
make CDEFINE+="-DZ=1000" clobber all
for example but if they just do make clobber all it won't be slow at all
or it'll be as slow as it takes the CPU to run it.
To get it to compile we have to pass to the compiler -include unistd.h.
To get it to compile without warnings we had to add -Wno-parentheses to
the compiler invocation.
Updated the README to include an example invocation (using the program
source itself) as the old way no longer works (typing in long lines
directly).
Removed some comments that turn out to not be true (it does not need a
K&R compiler for instance).
The 2020 winners are hinted it, but the source code is not there,
nor are the hints. Someone could look into the HTML and
see what was commented out, but that is not a problem because
WHO won is known and the name of their AWARD is known already.
Moreover a number of the winners have talked about what their
entirs do, so the commented out spoiler text is not a bit problem.
One will find HTML commented out with:
<!-- XXX remove when 2020 is ready
2020 links here
XXX remove when 2020 is ready -->
The "XXX remove when 2020 is ready" string is found at the
start and end comment blocks. Again, soneone could read
what was commented out, but that is OK since most of that
information is known or can be known. The following files
have such HTML comment blocks in them.
./winners.html
./years-spoiler.html
./years.html
In addition, ./all/summary.txt was modified to not
include the 2020 entries for the momemt.
The 2020 winner code AND write-ups are NOT part of this set.
p.s. The all/all.tar.bz2 does not contain the 2020 source code (yet?).
