The program is supposed to echo stdin to stdout if the program name
starts with 'e'. This was only possible if one do something like:
PATH=$PATH:.
echo '5*5+17' | eprog
because otherwise the first char would be '.' not 'e'.
This was done by using basename(3) and -include libgen.h (in the
Makefile so as to not modify the code more than is necessary).
The Makefile now copies 'prog' to 'eprog' and 'prog' to 'calc'. It also
copies 'prog.alt' to 'eprog.alt' and 'ecalc.alt' as this is what the
program is documented as.
Format fix the calc.1 man page and remove calc.man. This is so that the
formatting is correct and also so as to not have to maintain more than
one copy of the same text (which was almost certainly already out of
sync as I did not update calc.man when I added calc.1 exactly for the
reason that I deleted calc.man).
The try.sh script has been updated and so has the try.this.txt file that
try.sh uses.
This should complete the review of 2015/burton if I'm not very much
mistaken.
On Dave Burton's web page he provided a patch with a bug fix in his
entry. This patch has been applied to prog.c (not the alt code).
Added the missing file spoilers.markdown (but changed the extension to
.md).
Format fixes in README.md. Didn't check the full file yet. That'll
almost certainly come another time in another pull request.
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?).
