We add an initial "_title_" and "_abstract_" to all entry `.entry.json` files. The `bin/csv2entry.sh` tool reads the `summary.csv` file and loads the "_title_" and "_abstract_" to entry `.entry.json` files. Changed `bin/csv2entry.sh` VERSION from "1.3 2024-09-23" to "1.4 2024-09-27". Perform `make csv2entry` to perform the above and test under macOS. The `bin/cvt-submission.sh` tool adds "_title_" and "_abstract_" to the .entry.json based on the `.info.json` file. Changed `bin/cvt-submission.sh` VERSION from "1.2 2024-09-23" to "1.3 2024-09-27". The `bin/entry2csv.sh` tool forms the `summary.csv` file based on the "_title_" and "_abstract_" fields found in .entry.json files. Changed `bin/entry2csv.sh` VERSION from "1.3 2024-09-23" to "1.4 2024-09-27". Perform `make entry2csv` to perform the above and test under macOS. Added `-H` and `header=with-header-3` to the `bin/md2html.cfg` for the configuration entry for `[12][0-9][0-9][0-9]/*/README.md`. Changed `bin/md2html.sh` VERSION from "1.6 2024-08-17" to "1.7 2024-09-27". All entry `index.html` files now list the "_abstract_" in a new `<h3>abstract</h3>` header. Changed `bin/subst.entry-index.sh` VERSION from "1.6 2024-09-23" to "1.7 2024-09-27". Removed `summary.csv`. Added `summary.csv` and `summary.numbers` to `.gitignore`. Sorted the result with `bin/sgi.sh`. Perform `make quick_www` to perform the above and test under macOS. Perform `make www` to perform the above and test under macOS.
To build:
make all
There is an alternate version for those with an old enough compiler or for those who wish to see how C changed over the years. See Alternate code below.
Bugs and (Mis)features:
The current status of this entry is:
STATUS: INABIAF - please DO NOT fix
For more detailed information see 1990/westley in bugs.html.
To use:
./westley <number>
The number should be greater than 0.
Try:
./try.sh
Alternate code:
The alternate code is provided to show how C changed.
Alternate build:
If you have an old enough compiler or if you want to see how C changed over the years:
make alt
Alternate use:
Assuming that westley.alt compiles:
./westley.alt <number>
Judges' remarks:
If you would rather "Daisy" someone other than Westley, rename the program as needed. :-)
Read each block of code as if it were a piece of correspondence. For example, the first block of code would read:
charlie,
doubletime me, OXFACE!
not interested, get out
mainly die, charly, *die*
signed charlotte
The original source had control-L's after each code block. To make it easier on news readers, we converted each control-L to a blank line.
Author's remarks:
This is a "Picking the Daisy" simulation. Now, instead of mangling a daisy, simply run this program with the number of petals desired as the argument.
This is a good counter-example to peoples' complaints that C doesn't have an "English-like" syntax.
Lint complains about everything - null effect, xxx may be used before set, statement not reached, return(e) and return. Lint dumps core on some systems. My personal favorite lint complaint is
warning: eroticism unused in function
main.
Also obviously, (char)lotte and (char*)lie are incompatible types...
