This is a HUGE commit and this task is not done. There are still some
changes that might need to be discussed and since so much is done here I
think it's better to let this go through and then make sure everything
is okay. When the remaining references are discussed they can also be
changed.
I did NOT include changes in the tmp/OLD_manifest directory.
Some of the changes in this commit (it might be exhaustive but it might
not be - not sure):
- In the Makefiles the WINNERS was renamed AUTHORS.
- References to winners.html were changed to authors.html.
- The FAQ named anchor 'fix_a_winner' was renamed 'fix_an_entry'.
- The JSON fields (or whatever they're called) 'winner_id' and
'winner_JSON_format_version' were changed so that 'winner' is 'entry'.
- In scripts for entries 'IOCCC winner' was changed to 'IOCCC entry'.
- 'winners_text' is now 'entries_text'. It might be better to be
'entry_text' as it's per entry but this was not noticed at first. Since
this is easy to fix I am holding off on this for the meantime.
- The script tmp/update-manifest.sh now has the commit log messages
changed to the correct terms as well.
The index.html files were updated as well with any of the above
changes.
There are some references that should NOT be updated. Two examples
caught (and maybe more have slipped through that will have to be changed
back): in 1984/anonymous/README.md the author wrote back to Landon after
being told about the famous tattoo and they used the words:
.. my entry will be the first IOCCC winner ..
but since this comes from the author it should remain so.
The other one is that winners.html should still refer to winners.html as
it informs people that it's been moved to authors.html (it does redirect
too but even so if it was changed it would defeat the purpose of the
message).
With paths like authors.html I tried to copy paste so that hopefully
there are no typos. It is possible that I did not end up doing this with
all but these can be fixed when discovered.
Updated Makefile so one can easily change the 'Z' macro by doing:
make clobber MEMORY=... all
This is not usually useful but there are occasions where it is. As the
README.md points out this value must be a power of two!
The try.sh script runs the program on a number of the mc files, first
showing the input keys as a reminder (it also reminds one to keep in
mind the focus of windows).
The bugs.md is updated to note that it uses gets(3).
Format/typo check README.md file.
I changed the number of years ago that microorganisms appeared on Earth
as the number was off: there are those wondrous hydrothermal vents that
spewed mineral rich waters. Fun fact on the history of the Earth: did
you know that as of 2013 the number of years since the dinosaurs were
wiped out is not 65m years but actually 66m? That means that if you were
born before 2013 and you didn't die right before the revision that
you're in a rare group of people who have had a major historical update
as far as the dinosaurs go. But don't let it get to your head too much!
It also means you're ancient, possibly even a dinosaur, and you're
headed their way. :-) That's the price we must pay for being in that
group.
