Landon Curt Noll 4ee4c731f7 convert markdown copyright TAB chars into SPACE chars
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.

## To build:
``` <!---sh-->
make clobber all
```
and follow the instructions this will give you.
If your compiler will not read from `/dev/tty` see the [Alternate
code](#alternate-code) section below.
## To use:
``` <!---sh-->
./spinellis
```
Type in or copy paste some C code, perhaps from [input.txt](input.txt), and send
EOF (typically ctrl-d).
Now run again:
``` <!---sh-->
./spinellis
```
## Alternate code:
For clang or compilers that won't read from `/dev/tty`, we provide this version.
### Alternate build:
``` <!---sh-->
make clobber alt
```
and follow the instructions.
### Alternate use:
``` <!---sh-->
./spinellis.alt
```
Type in or copy paste some C code, perhaps from [input.txt](input.txt), and send
EOF (typically ctrl-d).
Now run again:
``` <!---sh-->
./spinellis.alt
```
## Judges' remarks:
We enjoyed this entry this year; however in the future programs must be able to
be compiled from within a Makefile without the need of human intervention.
## Author's remarks:
This program can be configured to do almost everything. The configuration is
done during compile time by typing in C code that one would like the program
to perform. A trivial example is given in the `how to compile' section but the
possibilities are clearly limited only by your imagination and programming
skills.
