The alt code provided by the author back in 2020 uses Unicode but there
wasn't a script for it (the script run_clock.sh which I made some fixes
in last year was added by the judges but no version for the alt code was
added).
The scripts also have another fix in them: make clock or make clock.alt
first as if not and the program does not exist the script will happily
overwrite the C files and prevent it from being compiled. They use 'make
-B' just to be sure that it's compiled.
When running the script from the shell one would get:
-bash: ./run_clock.sh: cannot execute: required file not found
and when running from within vim one would get:
/bin/bash: ./run_clock.sh: /usr/bin/end: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
The problem was that the script had in the shebang /usr/bin/end not
/usr/bin/env.
When I updated the thanks-for-fixes.md file for this I also noted that I
reported to Yusuke in the preview period back in 2020 that in some
systems (it was macOS) due possibly to a timing issue there the script
(which the judges had added) did not work properly with 'make' so Yusuke
changed it to compile the code directly.
