Ran `make update` to perform the above.
new file: 2024/burton/.entry.json
Added news for **2025-07-30** with the scheduled the date for the IOCCC
Awards Presentation and Source Code Reveal for IOCCC28 to be on 2025
August 02 11:00 (11AM) Pacific.
We add `make news` to the top level `Makefile.
Ran `make news timestamp` to perform the above.
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.
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 file next/remarks.example.md has been renamed next/remarks.md.
From this file a new html file, next/remarks.html, is generated. The
first part of the instructions say to download the markdown file and
copy it to your submission's directory.
The rest is mostly the same but this way one can look at the website and
also be aware of the file (and it'll be linked to in the rules and/or
guidelines as well).
This required updating bin/gen-top-html.sh an bin/md2html.cfg and the
Makefile was updated too (with a typo fix also).
The screenshots are more recent (including some new ones).
The welcome email images have not been updated as some things have to be
answered before that can be done.
The current files were renamed to be shorter as well.
Added `gen_status` and `gen_sitemap` to near the end of both `make www`
and `make quick_www`. Moved `find_missing_links` to the end of both
`make www` and `make quick_www`.
Updated `sitemap.xml`.
Performed `make www` on macOS to complete the above.
Performed `make quick_www` on macOS to complete the above.
Make lines beginning (in markdown files) 'BTW' bold. Rebuilt the
respective html pages.
Slight update to abstract in two entries (1985/shapiro and
1994/shapiro). One is changing 'defines' to '#defines' and the other was
a typo fix.
Fixed make gen_next: added missing new files.
Various fixes in next/register.html (typos and other things).
Added a new `next/register.html` that is required by the mailing list server.
The `next/register.md` still contains a big **XXX - put more data here - XXX**
as a placeholder for information about the mailing list registration process.
Improved the status text for `faq.html`, `next/index.html` and `status.html`
via `faq.md`, `next/README.md` and `status.md`. We also removed the
excessive links to IOCCC and instead use the term "contest" where applicable.
IMPORTANT CHANGE: Registration be available when the contest is both pending and open.
We made a number of changes to `faq.md`, `next/README.md` in an attempt to
reflect the above.
Changed `bin/gen-status.sh` VERSION from "1.7 2024-09-23"
to "1.8 2024-11-23".
Changed `bin/gen-top-html.sh` VERSION from "1.4.9 2024-08-11"
to "1.4.10 2024-11-23".
Perform `make www` and `make gen_status` to perform the above and test under macOS.
TODO: Change **XXX - put more data here - XXX** in `next/register.md` for information
about how to join the mailing list.
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.
This script is run from 'make test' too so that if someone changes a
JSON file and it is invalid the GitHub workflow will report an error.
This script is based on bin/find-missing-links.sh. It can be cleaned up
with exit codes (and consistency checks need to be made) but other
issues have higher priorities so I will leave this the way it is for
now.
Requires verge to be installed and the jparse version to be 1.2.0 or
greater.
It had:
#build authors.html if out of date with author JSON files'!/usr/bin/env make
so it was changed to:
!/usr/bin/env make
It seems like this was somehow yanked pasted from make help.
Use ``jstrdecode(1)` to decode certain JSON strings,
such as "Full Name", "Abstract", "Award" and "Organization".
We now rely on a correctly decoding `jstrdecode(1)`. The bin tools
now rely on `jstrdecode` with the following version or later:
> jstrdecode version: 1.0.6 2024-10-08
> JSON parser version: 1.1.7 2024-10-08
Removed `bin/unicode-fix.sed` and `bin/unicode-chk.sh`.
Removed `make unicode_chk`.
Fixed a few rule dependencies on `Makefile`.
Added information about `bin/jval-wrapper.sh` in `bin/README.md`.
Changed `bin/csv2entry.sh` VERSION from "1.4 2024-09-27"
to "1.5 2024-10-08".
Changed `bin/entry2csv.sh` VERSION from "1.4 2024-09-27"
to "1.5 2024-10-08".
Changed `bin/gen-authors.sh` VERSION from "1.13 2024-09-23"
to "1.14 2024-10-08".
Changed `bin/gen-location.sh` VERSION from "1.7 2024-09-23"
to "1.8 2024-10-08".
Changed `bin/gen-years.sh` VERSION from "1.5 2024-09-23"
to "1.6 2024-10-08".
Changed `bin/jfmt-wrapper.sh` VERSION from "1.2 2024-09-23"
to "1.3 2024-10-08".
Changed `bin/jprint-wrapper.sh` VERSION from "1.3 2024-09-23"
to "1.4 2024-10-08".
Changed `bin/jval-wrapper.sh` VERSION from "1.1 2024-09-23"
to "1.2 2024-10-08".
Changed `bin/output-index-author.sh` VERSION from "1.9 2024-09-23"
to "1.10 2024-10-08".
Changed `bin/output-year-index.sh` VERSION from "1.5 2024-09-23"
to "1.6 2024-10-08".
Changed `bin/subst.entry-index.sh` VERSION from "1.7 2024-09-27"
to "1.8 2024-10-08".
Perform `make www` to perform the above and test under macOS.
We add `make unicode_chk` to run `bin/unicode-chk.sh` to check all
`.entry.json` and all `author/author_handle.json` files.
Added a JSON format check by `jparse(1)` to `bin/unicode-chk.sh`.
Changed `bin/unicode-chk.sh` VERSION from "1.0 2024-09-23"
to "1.1 2024-09-24".
Performed `make unicode_chk` to test the above under macOS.
If the [jsp tool](https://github.com/kjozsa/jsp) is
installed, it will be used in favor of the [JSONPath.sh
tool](https://github.com/lcn2/JSONPath.sh).
Updated `bin/jfmt-wrapper.sh`, `bin/jprint-wrapper.sh`, and
`bin/jval-wrapper.sh` to use jsp if found. These 3 tools may be given
`-t tool` where tool is either "_jsp_" or "_JSONPath.sh_" for force the
use of the tool. They also use `-Q` to perform a quick check tool using
trivial input.
The `bin/jval-wrapper.sh` tool had been simplified. The `-w`,
`-i` and `-u` options are gone. Instead it has:
```
-b print only values (def: print both JSON member and JSON value)
-q remove enclosing double quotes (def: keep any enclosing double quotes)
```
Add `make all_jfmt` to Makefile to canonically format all entry and
author handle JSON files.
A sed script `bin/unicode-fix.sed` has been added that converts
JSON string "_\u[0-9A-Fa-f]{4}_" encoding that may arise from known
JSON data. This is done as a work-a-round for [Unicode / UTF-8
issues](https://github.com/xexyl/jparse/issues/13) with `jstrdecode(1)`.
The `bin/unicode-chk.sh` tool, if given on file arguments, scans
all `.entry.json` and `author/author_handle.json` JSON files to be
sure that, after `bin/unicode-fix.sed` processing, no JSON string
"_\u[0-9A-Fa-f]{4}_" encodings remain.
Removed all `-j jparse` args from commands. Instead the `jparse(1)`
tool is looked for along $PATH.
Added `combine_author_handle.sh` tool to transform all of the
`author/author_handle.json` files into a temporary as a single JSON
file so that `bin/jval-wrapper.sh` tool may be used to extract all
"_sort_word_" or all "_entry_id_" values.
Changed `bin/all-jfmt.sh` VERSION from "1.0 2024-08-31"
to "1.1 2024-09-24".
Changed `bin/csv2entry.sh` VERSION from "1.2.3 2024-08-30"
to "1.3 2024-09-23".
Changed `bin/cvt-submission.sh` VERSION from "1.1 2024-08-31"
to "1.2 2024-09-23".
Changed `bin/entry2csv.sh` VERSION from "1.2.1 2024-08-17"
to "1.3 2024-09-23".
Changed `bin/gen-authors.sh` VERSION from "1.12 2024-08-18"
to "1.13 2024-09-23".
Changed `bin/gen-location.sh` VERSION from "1.6 2024-08-18"
to "1.7 2024-09-23".
Changed `bin/gen-status.sh` VERSION from "1.6 2024-08-17"
to "1.7 2024-09-23".
Changed `bin/gen-years.sh` VERSION from "1.4 2024-08-17"
to "1.5 2024-09-23".
Changed `bin/jfmt-wrapper.sh` VERSION from "1.1 2024-08-20"
to "1.2 2024-09-23".
Changed `bin/jprint-wrapper.sh` VERSION from "1.1 2024-08-20"
to "1.3 2024-09-23".
Changed `bin/jval-wrapper.sh` VERSION from "1.0.4 2024-08-20"
to "1.1 2024-09-23".
Changed `bin/manifest.entry.json.awk` VERSION from "1.1.2 2024-07-28"
to "1.2 2024-09-17".
Changed `bin/output-index-author.sh` VERSION from "1.8 2024-08-17"
to "1.9 2024-09-23".
Changed `bin/output-year-index.sh` VERSION from "1.4.4 2024-08-05"
to "1.5 2024-09-23".
Changed `bin/subst.entry-index.sh` VERSION from "1.5 2024-08-13"
to "1.6 2024-09-23".
Added `bin/combine_author_handle.sh` VERSION "1.0 2024-09-23".
Added `bin/unicode-chk.sh` VERSION "1.0 2024-09-23".
Added `bin/unicode-fix.sed` VERSION "1.0 2024-09-23".
Perform `make www` to perform the above and test under macOS.
FYI: On our MacBook Pro, `make www` took:
```
make www 631.79s user 264.95s system 94% cpu 15:53.71 total
```
FYI: On our MacBook Pro, `make quick_www` took:
```
make quick_www 81.43s user 58.26s system 102% cpu 2:16.02 total
```
Added `bin/all-jfmt.sh` tool.
Added `make all_jfmt` rule to `Makefile`.
Added `make all_jfmt` to `make www`.
NOTE: Because the `bin/all-jfmt.sh` tool is slow, we did not
add `make all_jfmt` to `make quick_www`.
NOTE: Once the `jprint(1)` tool, as described in [issue
repo](https://github.com/xexyl/jparse), this tool (and a number of other
tools) will run **MUCH FASTER**.
Performed `make www` to accomplish the above and to test under macOS.
FYI: The `make www` takes:
make www 396.29s user 523.94s system 102% cpu 15:00.82 total
This command will become somewhat faster when the `jprint(1)` tool is ready.
It will become **MUCH** faster when the `jval(1)` tool is ready.
As a comparison, `make quick_www` takes only:
make quick_www 43.63s user 53.87s system 109% cpu 1:29.17 total
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.
We use the `bin/jval-wrapper.sh` tool to obtain information from JSON
files instead of attempting using a "GROSS HACK" that involved using
`grep(1)` (and friends) as those "GROSS HACK"s assumed that the layout of
the JSON was canonical. The `bin/jval-wrapper.sh` tool is able to deal
with various layouts of JSON including non-canonical layouts. Moreover,
by using the `bin/jval-wrapper.sh` tool we greatly reduce the places in
bin tools that contain "GROSS HACK"s.
Adjusted `bin/gen-status.sh` to use `bin/jval-wrapper.sh`.
Changed `bin/gen-status.sh` VERSION from "1.5.8 2024-08-05"
to "1.6 2024-08-17".
Performed `make gen_status` to test the above under macOS.
Adjusted `bin/gen-years.sh` to use `bin/jval-wrapper.sh`.
Changed `bin/gen-years.sh` VERSION from "1.3.7 2024-08-05"
to "1.4 2024-08-17".
Performed `make gen_years` to test the above under macOS.
Adjusted `bin/output-index-author.sh` to use `bin/jval-wrapper.sh`.
Changed `bin/output-index-author.sh` VERSION from "1.7.3 2024-08-05"
to "1.8 2024-08-17".
Performed `make entry_index` to test the above under macOS.
Added `make quick_year_index` to generate year level index.html files
when year level `YYYY/README.md` is newer.
The `make quick_www` calls `quick_year_index` instead of `make gen_year_index`.
The `bin` directory is now sat as `BIN_PATH=$TOPDIR/bin`, where
`$TOPDIR` is determined by top of the git repo (as determined by
the command: `git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree`) and potentially
modified by `-d topdir`. After `cd $TOPDIR`, we set `BIN_DIR=bin`.
All tools from this repo are now assumed to under "$BIN_DIR". Removed
command like options such as `-T md2html.sh`, and `-p tool` that used
to be able to change the location of a `bin` tool.
Changed `bin/gen-authors.sh` VERSION from "1.11 2024-08-13"
to "1.12 2024-08-18".
Changed `bin/gen-location.sh` VERSION from "1.5 2024-08-17"
to "1.6 2024-08-18".
Changed `bin/readme2index.sh` VERSION from "1.2.7 2024-08-05"

Modified `bin/all-years.sh` to use the `bin` directory mechanism.
Modified `bin/gen-other-html.sh` to use the `bin` directory mechanism.
Modified `bin/gen-year-index.sh` to use the `bin` directory mechanism.
Modified `bin/md2html.sh` to use the `bin` directory mechanism.
Modified `bin/quick-readme2index.sh` to use the `bin` directory mechanism.
Modified `bin/readme2index.sh` to use the `bin` directory mechanism.
Changed `bin/all-run.sh` VERSION from "1.3.6 2024-08-05"
to "1.4 2024-08-17".
Changed `bin/all-years.sh` VERSION from "1.0.5 2024-08-05"
to "1.1 2024-08-17".
Changed `bin/gen-other-html.sh` VERSION from "1.3 2024-08-11"
to "1.4 2024-08-17".
Changed `bin/gen-year-index.sh` VERSION from "1.1.2 2024-08-05"
to "1.2 2024-08-17".
Changed `bin/quick-readme2index.sh` VERSION from "1.1.7 2024-08-05"
to "1.2 2024-08-17".
Changed `bin/md2html.sh` VERSION from "1.5.5 2024-08-05"
to "1.6 2024-08-17".
Added some whitespace in the form of empty lines to tools.
Made checks for tools under `bin` directory more consistent.
When using `-Q` (quick mode) and the prerequisite files are newer,
we force the target to be touched so that a later run will not
have to build the target HTML file.
Performed `make quick_www` to test the above under macOS.
Performed `make www` to test the above under macOS.
We use the `bin/jval-wrapper.sh` tool to obtain information from JSON
files instead of attempting using a "GROSS HACK" that involved using

by using the `bin/jval-wrapper.sh` tool we greatly reduce the places in
bin tools that contain "GROSS HACK"s.
Adjusted `bin/gen-location.sh` to use `bin/jval-wrapper.sh`.
Added `-Q` option to `bin/gen-location.sh` to not form
`location.html` when the `location.html` file is newer than all
`author/author_handle.json` files.
Changed `bin/gen-location.sh` VERSION from "1.4.5 2024-08-05"
to "1.5 2024-08-15".
Performed `make location` to test the above under macOS.
Added `make quick_location` rule to the top level `Makefile`
to run `bin/gen-location.sh` with `-Q`.
Changed `make quick_www` use `make quick_location`.
Performed `make quick_location` to test the above under macOS.
Performed `make quick_www` to test the above under macOS.
Performed `make www` to test the above under macOS.
We use the `bin/jval-wrapper.sh` tool to obtain information from JSON

by using the `bin/jval-wrapper.sh` tool we greatly reduce the places in
bin tools that contain "GROSS HACK"s.
Improve `-v 1` debug messages for `bin/gen-authors.sh` to give some
level of progress instead of a long pause. Improve `-v 3` as well.
While the `bin/jval-wrapper.sh` tool is slower, it is also more accurate
in that various non-canonical JSON layouts will not confuse the tool.
Apologies for the slowdown. Once the `jval(1)` tool is ready, it should
be faster than the `JSONPath.sh` tool that `bin/jval-wrapper.sh` uses now.
Added `-Q` to `bin/jval-wrapper.sh` tool to perform a quick exit if
`authors.html` is newer than all `author/author_handle.json` files.
Updated the top level `Makefile` by adding `make quick_authors` rule
that will invoke `bin/gen-authors.sh -Q`. Also changed `make quick_www`
to call `make quick_authors` instead of `make authors`.
Changed `bin/gen-authors.sh` VERSION from "1.10.7 2024-08-05"
to "1.11 2024-08-13".
Make a minor improvement in the usage message for `bin/gen-other-html.sh`.
Performed `make www` to test the above under macOS.
Performed `make quick_www` to test the above under macOS.
We add `-Q` to `bin/gen-other-html.sh` to add a mode
that will only update an entry non-index.html if it
is missing or out of date.
Added `make quick_other_html` that calls `bin/gen-other-html.sh`
with the `-Q` quick mode option.
Changed `bin/gen-other-html.sh` VERSION from "1.2.6 2024-08-05"
to "1.3 2024-08-11".
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.
Added `make markdown` to the top level `Makefile` to just build
the `markdown.html` file.
Sorted make rules that build individual HTML files.
Performed `make gen_top_html` to accomplish the above and to test under macOS.
Updated 1337 hacker rulz to version 7.
Added `1337.mk` to contain the updated 1337 hacker rulz (v7).
We use an optional include of `1337.mk` (or `../1337.mk`,
or `../../1337.mk`) to include the 1337 hacker rulz.
Changed `make deep_magic` to `make more_magic`.
Changed `bin/tar-entry.sh` VERSION from "1.3.7 2024-07-22"
to "1.3.8 2024-07-23".

to "1.2.6 2024-07-23".
Add `make new_entry` to `YYYY/Makefile` and `template/Makefile.year`.
Change `make new_year` to use `sort -n -u`.
Made minor debug message fixes to `bin/new-year.sh`.
Changed `bin/new-year.sh` VERSION from "1.3 2024-07-23"
to "1.3.1 2024-07-23".
Improved `bin/add-dir.sh` to update `YYYY/Makefile` with
the new entry directory name.
Changed `bin/add-dir.sh` VERSION from "1.0 2024-07-21"
to "1.1 2024-07-23".
Performed `make www` to accomplish the above and to test under macOS.
We have added `bin/add-dir.sh` which is just a skeleton
script. For now, most of what is useful are the top level
comments describing what the command will and will NOT do.
These comments are work in progress and will be updated.
Updated `bin/README.md` to reflect these changes.
Changed usage introduction text to `bin/README.md`.
Made a minor comment change to `bin/add-dir.sh`.
The `bin/new-year.sh` toll will create the YYYY directory if needed.
Added `template/` directory for Makefile templates.
The `bin/new-year.sh` tool will create `YYYY/Makefile` from
the `template/Makefile.year` if needed.
The `YYYY/.year` and `YYYY/.filelist` will be created
for the new IOCCC year.
Change `bin/new-year.sh` VERSION from "1.1 2024-07-21"
to "1.2 2024-07-22".
Added a brief description of `bin/add-dir.sh` to `bin/README.md`
and updated `bin/new-year.sh` entry.
Added `make genpath_top` rule that just updates `.top`.
The existing `make genpath` also runs `make genpath_top`.
The `YYYY/README.md` will be created from a template
for the new IOCCC year.
Flag as error if `YYYY/README.md`, or `YYYY/YYYY.tar.bz2` is
missing in `bin/gen-years.sh`.
Warn if `YYYY/README.md`, or `YYYY/YYYY.tar.bz2` is an empty file
in `bin/gen-years.sh`.
Changed `bin/gen-years.sh` VERSION from "1.3.4 2024-07-13"
to "1.3.5 2024-07-23".
Performed `make www` to accomplish the above and to test under macOS.
The `bin/new-year.sh` now uses make rules to perform some
if its actions. It modifies the `Makefile` to add the
new year to the `${YEARS}` make variable.
Changed `bin/new-year.sh` VERSION from "1.0 2024-07-21"
to "1.1 2024-07-21".
The top level `Makefile` will test of a Makefile for
a given year exits before calling a make rule for the year.
If there is no `YYYY/Makefile` a warning message is issued
Updated `bin/README.md` to reflect these changes.
Performed `make www` to accomplish the above and to test under macOS.
Fixed typo in `make csv2entry` rule in `Makefile`.
Fixed how exit codes triggered deep within loops are realized.
Regularize how raising an exit codes with loops are announced.
The use of `-n` does NOT prevent the creation of temporary files:
only permanent files are not modified with `-n`. NOTE: While
CSV files are NOT permanent files, they too are not modified with `-n`.
Fixed the canonical sort of `manifest.csv`. Now running
`bin/csv2entry.sh` immediately after `bin/entry2csv.sh` will not
modify `manifest.csv`.
If `bin/csv2entry.sh` encounters an author handle for which
there is no `author/author_handle.json` file, the tool will
complete the formation of the CSV file set and then exit 9
at the very end.
Fixed a few comments in `bin/csv2entry.sh` and `bin/entry2csv.sh`.
In `bin/entry2csv.sh` changed VERSION from "1.0.3 2024-07-19"
to "1.0.4 2024-07-19".
In `bin/csv2entry.sh` changed VERSION from "1.0 2024-07-19"
to "1.0.1 2024-07-19".
Performed `make www` to accomplish the above and to test under macOS.
TODO: Incorporate as needed, more processing of `author/author_handle.json` files.
TODO: Remove the `tmp` directory (after saving contents into private storage).
Added `make entry2csv` and `make csv2entry` to the help list.
Changed the "syntax" if the lines printed by `make help` so
that when one selects the entire line and pastes that line
into the shell, the trailing comment is not seen as a rule,
nor it is executed.
Made other minor formatting changes of `make help`.
The Makefile rules now have a comment for what they do. The help rule
has not been updated.
The bin/README.md has had some format fixes and some typo fixes as well.
Rebuilt bin/index.html but these two files will have to be checked more
thoroughly later.
The variables CSV2ENTRY and ENTRY2CSV have been added for the new rules
that run the new rules, csv2entry and entry2csv, respectively, according
to the log in 097dd49cc7.
The rules have been added to .PHONY (thinking about this quickly I
believe this is correct but if not it can be corrected) but not make
help as I am not sure where in that rule they should be and I am also
not sure what should be said even as a summary. The rules have a comment
for which tool it runs but it also does not have a summary as I am not
sure what it should say and I do not currently have the time to look
into it.
With this commit it is now easier to run these tools for testing and
otherwise.
The location of the link is in the About menu under the 'Contacting the
IOCCC' and above 'Thanks for the help'. At first I had it at the very
bottom, under 'IOCCC markdown guidelines', but it seemed better to have
it closer to contacting the IOCCC. This is the same location in the no
JavaScript menu (which, for those who do not know or forget, is not a
requirement except for some screen sizes).
The top level Makefile has a new 'security' rule. Updated make help.
Typo fixes in make help.
SECURITY.html has had a few updates as well: change the wording of entry
code is unsupported (it now says 'ALL CODE IN ALL IOCCC ENTRIES IS
UNSUPPORTED!!') and it now links to the mkiocccentry repo and how to
report a possible security vulnerability in that repo; as that IS
supported - and since there was reference to discussing security
concerns is in SECURITY.html - even though the entries will not receive
security updates - it seemed a good idea to have a link to report such
security issues in the mkiocccentry repo. Perhaps the FAQ needs to be
updated for this too.
The guidelines had many fixes and where necessary updates (about new
tools for instance) plus some fun for people to discover.
The FAQ was slightly updated as well for the guidelines.
