The largest change was due to modifying `ioccc.css`
that resulted in all year and entry tarballs being modified.
Ran `make update` to perform the above.
The commit a1c86c8a7a modified
the navigation bars to include "Original C", so all tarballs
had be update, sorry (tm Canada 🇨🇦). In particular:
The navigation bar for a winning entry now has a "_Original C_" link
(between the ✅ and the Inventory on the right hand side) so that one
may easily view the original C code that was submitted for IOCCC judging.
In addition, a number of other commits since that time
modified other winning entries.
Ran `make update` to perform the above.
The navigation bar for a winning entry now has a "_Original C_" link
(between the ✅ and the Inventory on the right hand side) so that one

Ran `make www timestamp` to perform the above.
Update news to announce YouTube links.
Update tarballs for all of 2024 as well as a recent 2012 update.
Update sitemap.
Ran `make update` to perform the above.
2012/omoikane had some updates but the manifest was not properly updated
(so it would seem - it seems right but I cannot figure out how it was
not as obviously the CSV file was correct).
For some reason 2020/yang/index.html navigation linked to 2024/anders
which of course is a 404 (I seem to recall a mix-up that was fixed but
the html files were not rebuilt).
The 2020/yang/.entry.json file had the wrong manifest version as well.
Prepare for the winners of **IOCCC28**.
> However these are not the 2024 droids you are looking for. :-)
The HTML menu (both JavaScript and non-JavaScript) has been updated.
The `Status -> Rules and guidelines' have been replaced with two
separate menus `Status -> IOCCC rules` and `Status -> IOCCC guidelines`.
Added a new top level `social.html` page: built from a new `social.md`.
Sorted rules for building specific web pages in the top level `Makefile`.
Added `make social` to make the `social.html` page from `social.md`.
The `bin/gen-top-html.sh` now is able to process a argument of **social**
to process the new top level `social.html` page.
Changed `bin/gen-top-html.sh` VERSION from "2.0.0 2025-03-13"
to "2.0.1 2025-07-25".
Below `About -> Home page` a new `About -> IOCCC social media` menu item
as added.
Because the menu change touched every HTML file, we changed the general
copyright date range for HTML files from "1984-2024" to "1984-2025"
due to the extensive changes made for **IOCCC28**.
Those markdown files that were modified in 2025 had their copyright date
range also changed from "1984-2024" to "1984-2025".
Rebuilt tarballs and sitemap due to the extensive HTML rebuilding.
Ran `make update` to perform the above.
We add `make clang-format` to the Makefile tree.
Add `important disclaimers about contest status` link to `status.html`.
Update `years.html` due to recent commit that fixed typo for abstract of 2011/akari.
Improve `template/README.md.year` for future IOCCC contents.
Ran `make quick_www` to perform the above.
We have a clever use of the sgit(1) to cleaver cleaver. :-)
Updated `sitemap.xml` and the `status.json` timestamp.
Ran 'make quick_www' to perform the above.
Adjusted `bin/md2html.cfg` to allow for the creation of year level
archive of the rules and guidelines that were in effect when the given
year's content opened for submissions.
We improved `bin/gen-year-index.sh` so that if there exists
a `YYYY/rules.md` rules archive, then `YYYY/rules.html`
will be created.
We improved `bin/gen-year-index.sh` so that if there exists
a `YYYY/guidelines.md` rules archive, then `YYYY/guidelines.html`
will be created.
Changed `bin/gen-year-index.sh` VERSION from "2.0.0 2025-03-13"
to "2.1.0 2025-07-05".
Adjusted `next/rules.md` and `next/guidelines.md` so that when they are
copied as archived copies of rules and guidelines under a YYYY directory,
the internal links do not break. There are **NO** changes to the readable
contents of the rules and guidelines, only some changes to a few internal links.
Updated `1992/buzzard.2/index.html, `1993/rince/index.html`, and
`2012/omoikane/index.html that were modified by recent commits.
Rebuild sitemap due to the changes above.
Ran `make www` to test and perform the above.
The `display_as` field in an `.entry_json` file must match
the regex `^[a-z][0-9a-z]*$` now. This is needed to reduce
errors during the final round while converting a potential
submission to entry form.
Modify `1992/buzzard.2/.entry.json` and
`1993/rince/.entry.json` to change `display_as` field
to use lower case.
Correct `2012/omoikane/.entry.json` to correctly
reflect changes made by commit 2955e5d07e
and commit 2955e5d07e.
Change `bin/cvt-submission.sh` to verify that the `display_as`
matches the above regex.
Changed `bin/cvt-submission.sh` VERSION from "2.2.2 2025-06-30"
to "2.3.0 2025-07-02".
Rebuild all tarballs, both at the entry and the year level
due recent changes to `var.mk`, `1337.mk`, and `ioccc.css`.
Rebuild sitemap due to the changes above.
Ran `make update` to test and perform the above.
The genpath rule uses `${RM}` to remove files, and touches `.tmp.genpath` after removing it.
Updated "_YYYY/Makefile_" files, and the `template/Makefile.year` template.
Updated year level tarballs to incorporate the modified "_YYYY/Makefile_" file.
Updated sitemap.
Tested the above via `make update` on macOS.
The tarballs were updated.
Removed reference to the previous mod from `thanks-for-help.md`.
Updated the `2012/omoikane/index.html` page.
Updated sitemap.
The first alt version added some whitespaces that broke the outline, so
I simply filled those up. I also expanded tabs to spaces since there is
no size limit restriction for the alternate version.
The second alt version attempted to force binary mode with _setmode()
and _fileno() calls, plus some additional headers. Rather than doing it
this way, I hack in the binary mode adjustments via preprocessor.
Actually I did a similar trick for IOCCC 2011, but I guess I didn't
submit that version:
https://uguu.org/archive/ioccc2011/akari/source/binmode_main.h
The file above uses _setmode() and _fileno(). The leading underscore
indicates that they were nonstandard extensions. For the binmode_main.h
in this change, I have opted for setmode() and STDIN_FILENO instead,
which are more widely available.
Added processing of "%%REPO_TOP_URL%%" tokens to `bin/subst.default.sh`.
Updated `find-missing-links.sh` to not falsely report missing links
when a "%%REPO_TOP_URL%%" token is used.
Changed `bin/subst.default.sh` VERSION from "1.3.2 2024-08-05"
to "1.4.0 2025-04-16".
Changed `bin/find-missing-links.sh` VERSION from "1.1.1 2024-04-28"
to "1.2.0 2025-04-16".
Due to a `pandoc(1)` bug fix, `2011/fredriksson/index.html` and
`2012/kang/index.html` were modified. The bug fix removed extraneous
whitespace that was previously introduced into HTML under certain
situations. These 2 changes do **NOT** impact the way web browsers
render these pages, however.
Updated sitemap.
Updated tarballs based on entry mods since 2025 March 4
(commit 233e5e90a5 just prior
to the IOCCC28 open).
Tested the above via `make update` on macOS.
A choice was made a while back to use website and not web site so
changed all new references of 'web site' to 'website':
sgit -e 's/web site/website/g' '*.md' '*.html'
As this also occurs in the FAQ and there were some minor mods (just
textual, including some fun, not a new FAQ) these are included too.
The menu in all html pages for the FAQ was fixed to link to the step 0
(of how to enter the contest) and also it was renamed ('Enter the
IOCCC').
I also went through the most important sections of the FAQ (how to
enter and the mkiocccentry related questions) and checked the
register.html, pw-change.html and submit.html pages. It is possible I
have missed something but I think it's in pretty good shape nonetheless.
We move the "_Thanks for the help_" out from under the "Entries"
menu and under the "About" menu to better balance the menus.
Besides, "_Thanks for the help_" is more **about** the IOCCC itself.
The sections have been modified a fair amount. The Entries menu has been
extended to have: Fixing entries, Updating author info, Thanks for the
help. The first two were moved from FAQ and the last one from About.
The rationale for these, in order: entries and authors have to do with
entries and most of the help involves entries. It also has to do with
website but in 'about' it does not seem the right place, unless maybe it
is renamed to 'Credits' or something (I am not suggesting this one way
or the other). This one is debatable but that was the rationale.
The Status menu has been extended to have: Markdown guidelines and
Security policy. The rationale is that the markdown guidelines are part
of contest guidelines and the security policy is about the status of the
entries and how if there are any security problems they will not be
addressed (instead of about the IOCCC).
The FAQ was extended to have: Compiling entries, Running entries, How to
help. The reason to not have compiling and running entries under Entries
is because this is 'how to' and also the menu was too long. How to help
seems like a good idea under FAQ too (was in About).
About was extended to have the new 'about.html' page (from about.md).
This is a rare case where a new file is useful as it fits under 'About'.
The menu now is: Home page, About the IOCCC, The Judges, Contact us. I
was pondering the 'About [the IOCCC]' at the top and also naming it
'About us' but it seemed like a link to index.html was necessary and as
for 'about us' it seemed less clear as to whether it was about the
judges or the contest itself. The FAQ has been updated slightly for
this.
After further inspection the bin/index.html and the inc/index.html links
were removed from the about section.
With these changes, renaming an item or slight reordering
notwithstanding, I believe that #2006 is probably in good shape.
The mobile About menu was missing the IOCCC markdown guidelines. This
has been added to the mobile menu but moved to 'Status' which is where
guidelines are (it has been renamed to be 'IOCCC Markdown Guidelines' to
match the style of the other items in that menu).
The About menu now has two more links, one for the website tools and the
other for the include files of the tools. It might be, looking at the
generated html files, better to have another menu instead, but what that
should be is unclear. The reason it might be better is because the
'About' menu is rather long. In retrospect it might be better to not
have the script include files in the html files but this can be decided
and dealt with later.
The script bin/find-missing-links.sh now ignores the directory NOTES/. A
better approach might be using git ls-files --exclude but a quick test
did not work right. Another option, at least for NOTES/, might be to use
'git ls-files --exclude-standard'.
The bin/index.html file has been updated.
Run make www to rebuild all html files.
A number of question answers have been merged and shortened somewhat.
Fix link in the menu of all html pages and the inc/ files that was
broken due to renaming an anchor.
The guidelines and rules have had a link fix (to the FAQ) as well as
some additional points added about the mkiocccentry toolkit.
More work in the FAQ needs to be done, including with the how to enter
the IOCCC, but as so much work has been done already I have decided to
make the commit to get these many important changes out of the way.
This code is based on a 'fix' that causes another issue, and could
potentially be 'wrong' to have. It is better, I think, to pose the
challenge to the viewer to see if they can solve the problem themselves,
and if so if there are any issues with such a fix.
We add an initial "_title_" and "_abstract_" to all entry `.entry.json` files.
The `bin/csv2entry.sh` tool reads the `summary.csv` file and
loads the "_title_" and "_abstract_" to entry `.entry.json` files.
Changed `bin/csv2entry.sh` VERSION from "1.3 2024-09-23"
to "1.4 2024-09-27".
Perform `make csv2entry` to perform the above and test under macOS.
The `bin/cvt-submission.sh` tool adds "_title_" and "_abstract_" to the
.entry.json based on the `.info.json` file.
Changed `bin/cvt-submission.sh` VERSION from "1.2 2024-09-23"
to "1.3 2024-09-27".
The `bin/entry2csv.sh` tool forms the `summary.csv` file
based on the "_title_" and "_abstract_" fields found in .entry.json files.
Changed `bin/entry2csv.sh` VERSION from "1.3 2024-09-23"
to "1.4 2024-09-27".
Perform `make entry2csv` to perform the above and test under macOS.
Added `-H` and `header=with-header-3` to the `bin/md2html.cfg`
for the configuration entry for `[12][0-9][0-9][0-9]/*/README.md`.
Changed `bin/md2html.sh` VERSION from "1.6 2024-08-17"
to "1.7 2024-09-27".
All entry `index.html` files now list the "_abstract_" in a new
`<h3>abstract</h3>` header.
Changed `bin/subst.entry-index.sh` VERSION from "1.6 2024-09-23"
to "1.7 2024-09-27".
Removed `summary.csv`.
Added `summary.csv` and `summary.numbers` to `.gitignore`.
Sorted the result with `bin/sgi.sh`.
Perform `make quick_www` to perform the above and test under macOS.
Perform `make www` to perform the above and test under macOS.
The PR #2662 introduced TAB characters into entry `.entry.json` files
and mal-formatted `author_handle` JSON members.
To restore canonical JSON formatting, we did:
```sh
find [12][90][89012][0-9] -name .entry.json -print | xargs -n 1 bin/jfmt-wrapper.sh -v 1
```
BTW: We have written a tool, currently untested, to do this. We plan to also
add a new fix JSON format rule to the top level `Makefile`.
Performed `make www` to accomplish the above and to test under macOS.
The core of `bin/gen-other-html.sh` code that converts entry non-README.md
into HTML has been moved into a new tool: `bin/othermd2html.sh`.
The `bin/othermd2html.sh` tool will be useful to the `bin/cvt-submission.sh`
tool that is under development.
Added info about `bin/othermd2html.sh` to `bin/README.md`.
Changed `bin/gen-other-html.sh` VERSION from "1.4.1 2024-08-18"
to "1.5 2024-08-27".
HTML produced by `bin/gen-other-html.sh` now uses a "jump to" mid-bar
test now shows the `YYYY/dir/index.html` link text (with `YYYY/dir/` added).
Performed `make gen_other_html` to accomplish the above and to test under macOS.
Performed `make gen_top_html` to accomplish the above and to test under macOS.
A number of rules have been moved from entry `Makefile`s into the
`1337.mk` include file to make it easier for these common rules to be
updated or modified globally (by modifying the `1337.mk` include file).
The entry level `Makefile`s are now similar in form to the
/Makefile.example](https://github.com/ioccc-src/mkiocccentry/blob/master/Makefile.example)
file from the other repo.
The following make rules were moved into the `1337.mk` include file:
- `make indent.c`
- `make install`
- `make diff_orig_prog`
- `make diff_prog_orig`
- `make diff_alt_prog`
- `make diff_prog_alt`
This simplifies the entry level `Makefile`s so that they mostly reflect
the specifics of the particular entry.
Mentioned in FAQ 4.2, that the make diff rules are in the `1337.mk` include file.
Fixed invalid TAB character in `faq.md`.
Removed `make clean` directives that removed `indent.c`. This file is now
removed via `make indent_clean`, a clean rule that also removes `indent.c`.
Removed `make clobber` directives that removed sandwich, This file is now
removed via `make indent_clobber`, a clean rule that also removes `sandwich`.
Added `make indent_clean` and `make indent_clobber` rules into the top level
`Makefile` and the year level `YYYY/Makefile`.
Performed `make quick_www` to accomplish the above and to test under macOS.
The warning -Wmisleading-indentation is nothing but style policing, can
causes unnecessary edits to working code which is error prone itself and
even beginner C programmers can parse it as it's one of the first things
learnt, blocks of code. And if someone can't perhaps they should be
using another language or not programming at all. As for the IOCCC it
would be considered a good thing to be 'misleading' except that it's not
misleading to anyone participating in the IOCCC and certainly not to the
judges if it even is to anyone else.
There is also a fix that fixes a format problem with
the `author_set`.
Used `bn/jfmt-wrapper.sh` to reformat JSON with:
```sh
find * -name '*.json' -print0 | xargs0 -n1 -t bin/jfmt-wrapper.sh
```
We improve entry `index.html` navbar links by allowing the
next and previous to link across years.
The `make genpath` now forms `.allyear`, which is a
sorted contamination of all YYY level `.year` files.
Updated `make help` to reflect the `make genpath` functionality.
Updated FAQ 6.8 to talk about the `.allyear` file.
Fixed links to `.top` and `.allyear' to refer to GitHub.
Changed `bin/subst.entry-navbar.awk` VERSION from "1.2 2024-03-02"
to "1.3 2024-08-02".
Changed `bin/subst.entry-index.sh` VERSION from "1.3.5 2024-08-05"
to "1.4 2024-08-09".
Performed `make www` to accomplish the above and to test under macOS.
