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.
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.
We added lettered steps to `next/register.md` as part of our
configuring the mailing list for IOCCC28.
Change "IOCCC Judges" to the more commonly used "IOCCC judges"
and made it a HTML link in `2014/README.md`, `2015/README.md`,
and `faq.md`.
Added a reference to "first time login" in `next/submit.md`.
Improved some text in Step 3 of FAQ 0.0 of `faq.md`.
Performed `make quick_www` to update the HTML pages.
TODO: Need to add images to the lettered steps in `next/register.md.
There are places where references to mirror sites should be kept in like
in the FAQ (currently FAQ 6.2 with the title 'May I mirror the IOCCC
website?' and with the named anchor 'mirrors', 'website_mirrors' and
'website_mirroring').
There are many fixes made but a few questions remain so when I reach
those years I will address those then. Unfortunately, due to
infrastructure work right now, this is all I can say even though there
are a number of things I'd like to say.
While not strictly necessary, replacing the two ASCII tab characters
in the markdown copyright comment makes it easier to detect problematic
TAB indentation within markdown files.
After this commit, only 90 markdown files have leading ASCII TAB
characters. And again, while not strictly necessary, we can consider
running expand on those 90 markdown files to see what effect that
might have on the HTML files they produce.
Replace leading ASCII TAB characters with multiples of 8 ASCII SPACE
characters (the default action of the `expand(1)` tool) might have
an negative effect on some HTML formatting where **hack-a-round**
formatting was attempted to fix broken indentation caused by
problematic ASCII TAB characters.
Think of this as a baseline for evaluating leading
TAB characters within markdown files.
TODO: Consider either using `expand(1)` to replace leading ASCII
TAB characters with multiples of 8 ASCII SPACE characters AND/OR
modifying the appropriate `bin` tool to convert leading ASCII TAB
characters into multiples of 8 ASCII SPACE characters.
The inc/footer.default.html now has a common Copyright and CC BY-SA
4.0 License section for all generated HTML files.
All markdown files have a similar Copyright and CC
at the bottom in the form of an HTML comment.
It should be pointed out that there are a few inconsistencies as noted
below.
In some years the title of entries that were explicitly listed were
linked to but as the README.md files no longer have the title it was not
as easy to locate the title (I could go back in archive/historic and I
did in some cases but I was trying to hurry this up to close#3).
It's most likely that some have backticks surrounding certain words like
gcc or something else but not in all files. An example that might be
there is '#define'.
Some wording is different. Usually this is due to the original wording
which I did not think was good to change. There might be other cases
that were missed as well. One thing is that comes to mind is that in
some README.md files it refers to the Makefile to check for build
instructions, in others it refers to the index.html file and in some it
refers to both. But the index.html has how to build so they should
probably all say index.html and not refer to the Makefile. This was also
done in a rush.
There might be other inconsistencies or things that might want to be
fixed but whether it's worth it given is unclear at this time. It can be
argued that the reference to the Makefiles for build instructions is a
historical comment to keep there as an example of why not to change it.
There were other things I noticed that I could not address or did not
feel were necessary but with this commit an important task is can likely
be considered done unless it is decided that some of these should be
fixed or if looking at the rendered output there is a problem.
Entry source is now prog.c for IOCCC years 2014 thru 2020,
or is now dirname.c IOCCC years 1984 thru 2013.
To achieve this state, we renamed the following:
renamed: 2004/hibachi/src/hibachi.c -> 2004/hibachi/hibachi.c
renamed: 2012/omoikane/nyaruko.alt.c -> 2012/omoikane/omoikane.alt.c
renamed: 2012/omoikane/nyaruko.alt2.c -> 2012/omoikane/omoikane.alt2.c
renamed: 2012/omoikane/nyaruko.c -> 2012/omoikane/omoikane.c
renamed: 2012/omoikane/nyaruko.orig.c -> 2012/omoikane/omoikane.orig.c
Modified `bin/subst.entry-index.sh` to add to entry `index.html` file,
links to the `Makefile` and the _C code_ to the top navigation bar.
Changed `bin/subst.entry-index.sh` VERSION from "1.2.2 2024-02-25"
to "1.3 2024-03-02".
Moved printing the Inventory link in the top navigation bar
from `bin/subst.entry-navbar.awk` to `bin/subst.entry-index.sh`.
Changed `bin/subst.entry-navbar.awk` VERSION from "1.0.1 2024-02-23"
to "1.1 2024-03-02".
Moved printing the Inventory link in the top navigation bar
from `bin/subst.year-navbar.awk` to `bin/subst.year-index.sh`.
Changed `bin/subst.year-index.sh` VERSION from "1.0 2024-02-11"
to "1.1 2024-03-02".
Changed `bin/subst.year-navbar.awk` VERSION from "1.0 2024-02-11"
to "1.1 2024-03-02".
Added location names (both default and common) to `author.html`.
Changed `tmp/gen_author_json.sh` VERSION from "1.0 2023-06-06"
to "1.1 2024-03-04".
Added location names (both default and common) to `author.html`.
Changed `bin/gen-authors.sh` VERSION from "1.2 2024-03-09"
to "1.3 2024-03-04".
The manifest and the resulting `.entry.json` files have been changed
for `2004/hibachi` and `2012/omoikane`.
The Makefiles for `2004/hibachi` and `2012/omoikane` copy the
source file into the "previously used location". The `make clobber`
rule removes the copied source. The `.gitignore` files have been
updated accordingly.
Improved how the concept of IOCCC terms _entry_, _author_ and _submission_ are
used in markdown files.
Links to markdown files (files ending in .md) within the repo were
changed to link to HTML files (files ending in .html). Special cases
where `README.md` became `index.html` were modified accordingly.
Fixed URL for `bugs.html` in Makefile comments.
Fixed name of `bin/sgi.sh` referenced in comments in `.gitignore` files.
Links to locations within the repo are now relative. For example a
link to `/contact.html` may become `../contact.html' or '../../contact.html`
depending on the directory level of the markdown file.
Nearly all links with absolute URLs under _https://www.ioccc.org_
or `https://ioccc-src.github.io/temp-test-ioccc_ have been changed to
relative paths within the repo. Some exceptions to this (such as
referring to a GitHub repo) were preserved.
Fixed a number of inside `faq.md` and `bugs.md`.
Added HTML name tags (in the form of an _entry_id_) for each entry
referenced in `bugs.md`. Fixed links from outside of `bugs.html`
into `bugs.html` accordingly.
Where FAQ entries are referenced, a named tag is used so that if a
FAQ is ever renumbered, links outside of `faq.html` will still work.
Changed the _inventory_order_ of a compressed tarball from _300_
to _100000_. While this may have been done for the manifest,
this changed had not yet been propagated into the `.entry.json` files.
Links to web sites that were in the for <URL> are now [URL](URL).
Performed `name www` to process all of the above.
Improved format of `authors.html`. Full names are now bold.
Location codes are now links back into `location.html` and
location names (both default and common) are now italics.
Added _author_handle_ each author.
Changed `bin/gen-authors.sh` VERSION from "1.1 2024-02-25"
to "1.2 2024-03-09".
Improved format of `location.html` as location codes are now bold,
author counts in a given location are now bold, and location names
(both default and common) are now italics.
Changed `bin/gen-location.sh` VERSION from "1.0.1 2024-02-23"
to "1.1 2024-03-04".
Added italic location name after location code in entry
`index.html` files.
Changed `bin/output-index-author.sh` VERSION from "1.4.1 2024-02-23"
to "1.5 2024-03-04".
Added _Location of authors_ to the sidebar as a link to `location.html`.
TODO: While nearly all of the above mentioned changes are likely correct,
they likely introduced a few errors that need correcting.
We add to the top level Makefile, some initial rules that
will facilitate the building of HTML content.
The `bin/md2html.sh` tool as been updated to output HTML comments
about the output during HTML phases 20, 21 and 22.
All entry `index.html` files were updated with some additional HTML
comments as a result of the above. The top level `location.html`,
`years.html` and `authors.html` have had HTML comments added also
a result.
Sorry (tm Canada 🇨🇦) for the mass update of entry `index.html` files.
Hopefully the times when all of them (often) need to be updated
will soon draw to a close.
We found in our deep archives, the year-level
README files for 2014, 2015. They have been converted
to markdown in a generic crude way.
TODO: Edit and improve these files to the same level
as the other year-level README.md files.
