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
```
There is an alt version which is the originally submitted entry. See [Alternate
code](#alternate-code) below for details.
## To use:
``` <!---sh-->
./prog <a number of arguments>
```
## Try:
``` <!---sh-->
./try.sh
```
## Alternate code:
An alternate version of this entry, [prog.alt.c](%%REPO_URL%%/2015/endoh4/prog.alt.c), is provided.
This alternate code does not contain improvements suggested by [Gil
Dogon](../../authors.html#Gil_Dogon); it is the author's original entry.
### Alternate build:
``` <!---sh-->
make alt
```
### Alternate use:
Use `prog.alt` as you would `prog` above.
## Judges' remarks:
For this one liner it is best to avoid prime numbers. The output groups
factors in the x-y dimensions. How many factors can be represented before you
run out of command line argument space? How could you modify the program to
experiment with numbers that have more or larger factors?
## Author's remarks:
Visual factorization 1-liner. Try:
``` <!---sh-->
gcc -o prog prog.c
./prog @
./prog @ @
./prog @ @ @
./prog @ @ @ @
./prog @ @ @ @ @ @
./prog @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @
./prog @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @
```

[prog.alt.c](%%REPO_URL%%/2015/endoh4/prog.alt.c) is the original version that I submitted. [Gil
Dogon](../../authors.html#Gil_Dogon) kindly improved it during the review. Thank
you!
