Landon Curt Noll 11dfe51c6c move IOCCC Quick Start Guide
Created `quick-start.md` to hold the FAQ 0.0 content.

Used `sgit(1)` to change:

* faq.html#enter ==> quick-start.html#enter
* faq.html#enter_questions ==> quick-start.html#enter_questions
* faq.html#step_0 ==> quick-start.html#step_0
* faq.html#step_1 ==> quick-start.html#step_1
* faq.html#step_2 ==> quick-start.html#step_2
* faq.html#register ==> quick-start.html#register
* faq.html#step_3 ==> quick-start.html#step_3
* faq.html#step_4 ==> quick-start.html#step_4
* faq.html#step_5 ==> quick-start.html#step_5
* faq.html#step_6 ==> quick-start.html#step_6
* faq.html#step_7 ==> quick-start.html#step_7
* faq.html#step_submit ==> quick-start.html#step_submit

Via:

```sh
sgit -e 's/faq\.html#enter/quick-start.html#enter/g' '*.md' '*.hdr' 'inc/*.html'
sgit -e 's/faq\.html#enter_questions/quick-start.html#enter_questions/g' '*.md' '*.hdr' 'inc/*.html'
sgit -e 's/faq\.html#step_0/quick-start.html#step_0/g' '*.md' '*.hdr' 'inc/*.html'
sgit -e 's/faq\.html#step_1/quick-start.html#step_1/g' '*.md' '*.hdr' 'inc/*.html'

sgit -e 's/faq\.html#register/quick-start.html#register/g' '*.md' '*.hdr' 'inc/*.html'
sgit -e 's/faq\.html#step_3/quick-start.html#step_3/g' '*.md' '*.hdr' 'inc/*.html'
sgit -e 's/faq\.html#step_4/quick-start.html#step_4/g' '*.md' '*.hdr' 'inc/*.html'
sgit -e 's/faq\.html#step_5/quick-start.html#step_5/g' '*.md' '*.hdr' 'inc/*.html'
sgit -e 's/faq\.html#step_6/quick-start.html#step_6/g' '*.md' '*.hdr' 'inc/*.html'
sgit -e 's/faq\.html#step_7/quick-start.html#step_7/g' '*.md' '*.hdr' 'inc/*.html'
sgit -e 's/faq\.html#step_submit/quick-start.html#step_submit/g' '*.md' '*.hdr' 'inc/*.html'
```

The former FAQ 0.0 section in `faq.html` now just refers to `quick-start.html`.

Modified menu and non-JS menu so that "Enter the IOCCC" refers to `quick-start.html`.

Changed `bin/gen-top-html.sh` VERSION from "1.4.10 2024-11-23"
to "1.4.11 2025-01-09".

Performed `make www` on macOS to complete the above.

<h2 id="to-build">To build:</h2>
<pre><code> make all</code></pre>
<h2 id="to-use">To use:</h2>
<p>To have the computer guess:</p>
<pre><code> ./leo [colors]</code></pre>
<p>To guess the computer’s number:</p>
<pre><code> ./mind [colors]</code></pre>
<p>where:</p>
<p><code>[colors]</code> is the number of possible colors (1 to 15) (default: 6)</p>
<h2 id="judges-remarks">Judges’ remarks:</h2>
<p>By default, the number of colors is 6. You may specify a
value of between 1 and 15 colors. See the author’s notes
for instructions of how to play.</p>
<p>We look forward to more entries from the newer members of the
International Internet community.</p>
<h2 id="authors-remarks">Author’s remarks:</h2>
<p>This program plays
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mastermind_(board_game)">Mastermind</a>, if you call
it by a name ending by <code>d</code>, otherwise it <em>solves</em> Mastermind. Call it without
parameters to use 6 digits (colors), or indicate the number of possible digits
(you cannot change the number of positions so easily).</p>
<p>The number in parentheses is the number of possible combinations,
based on previous questions and answers. If you solve the puzzle,
“(1)” indicates that your previous moves are enough to give correct
answer. If the program acts as solver and terminates prematurely,
it means that you’re mistaken in your answers to its question(s).
Question marks indicate the number of digits you have to enter
(either 4 when you guess or 2 when computer guesses).</p>
<p>Note that the program uses the same code for both player and
solver, and the only place where it makes a difference is the
interactive part. Many obfuscations have been made to achieve
this. An expression giving <code>(bulls * 16 + cows)</code> from two numbers
is, however, quite straightforward :-) , as well as the arithmetic
of binary coded colors-base numbers is.</p>
<h3 id="limitations-maximum-number-of-digits-colors-is-14-1..f.">Limitations: maximum number of digits (colors) is 14 (1..F).</h3>
<p>Suggestions: Use terminal (or emulator) with non-destructive
backspaces. Do “disable scrolling” on cmdtool or similar emulators.</p>
<h4 id="bugs">Bugs</h4>
<p>Please don’t type <code>^D</code> at the prompt!!</p>
