With the compilation fix of the code some symmetry was unfortunately
destroyed. To try and keep it as close as possible to the original I had
just commented out the code. But looking at it again today it occurred
to me that I can make it look more symmetrical by removing the commented
out code and then formatting the code a bit differently (another cast
was removed to do this). It is not any less authentic but it now has
more symmetry which was an important part of the entry's layout.
Unfortunately this ruins the symmetry but I did make it so that the
problematic code is still shown just commented out. The problem was one
can no longer assign to a cast.
The original version was preserved in westley.alt.c, a worthy thing I
think to do as symmetry is magical and it should be shown how it once
worked without having to look at the archive.
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?).
