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#step_2/quick-start.html#step_2/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.

|
||
<h4 id="verify-that-the-ioccc-is-pending-or-open-for-submissions">0. Verify that the IOCCC is pending or open for submissions</h4>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<p>First, check the “<strong><a href="status.html">current status of the IOCCC</a></strong>” page to see current contest status.
|
||
You may <strong>only register for the IOCCC when the IOCCC is either <a href="status.html#pending">pending</a>
|
||
or <a href="status.html#open">open</a></strong>.</p>
|
||
<p>You may <strong>only submit your entries to the IOCCC when the IOCCC is <a href="status.html#open">open</a></strong>.</p>
|
||
<p>See also the <a href="news.html#news">IOCCC news</a> for more information.</p>
|
||
<div id="step_1">
|
||
<h4 id="read-the-latest-ioccc-rules-and-review-the-ioccc-guidelines">1. Read the latest IOCCC rules and review the IOCCC guidelines</h4>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<p>Please pay close attention to the <a href="next/rules.html">official IOCCC rules</a>.</p>
|
||
<p>You are also <strong>highly encouraged</strong> to review the
|
||
<a href="next/guidelines.html">official IOCCC guidelines</a> as they contain important
|
||
suggestions, useful hints, and IOCCC humor. :-)</p>
|

<div id="step_2">

<h4 id="register-for-the-ioccc">2. Register for the IOCCC</h4>
|

<p><strong>IMPORTANT</strong>: You may <strong>only register for the IOCCC when the IOCCC is either <a href="status.html#pending">pending</a>
|
||
or <a href="status.html#open">open</a></strong>. See “<strong><a href="status.html">current status of the IOCCC</a></strong>” page for details.</p>
|
||
<p>If the contest is <a href="status.html#pending">pending</a> or <a href="status.html#open">open</a>,
|
||
then follow the directions on “<strong><a href="next/register.html">how to register for the IOCCC</a></strong>”.</p>

your <a href="https://submit.ioccc.org">IOCCC submit server</a> <strong>Username</strong> and

|
||
<p><strong>PLEASE NOTE</strong>: After registering, it could take up to a <strong>few days</strong>
|
||
before an <a href="judges.html">IOCCC judge</a> sends the that email, so <strong>PLEASE
|
||
be patient</strong>. This means that you should <strong>GIVE YOURSELF TIME</strong> before the
|
||
contest closes!</p>
|
||
<p><strong>IMPORTANT NOTE</strong>: Unless the contest is <a href="status.html#open">open</a>,
|

then you will <strong>NOT</strong> receive your <strong>Username</strong> and <strong>Initial password</strong>

|
||
<p><strong>NOTE</strong>: It is <em>NOT</em> necessary to install the tools to use them as you can run
|
||
the tools from the top of the <code>mkiocccentry</code> repo directory just fine, though
|
||
you’ll have to use the form of <code>./mkiocccentry</code> instead of just <code>mkiocccentry</code>.
|
||
However, installing it will make it easier for you as you can run it from your
|
||
submission’s directory. See the
|
||
FAQ on “<strong><a href="https://github.com/ioccc-src/mkiocccentry/blob/master/FAQ.md#install">installing mkiocccentry</a></strong>”
|
||
at the mkiocccentry repo.</p>
|
||
<p>If the <code>mkiocccentry</code> tool indicates that there is a problem with your entry,
|
||
especially if it identifies a <a href="next/rules.html#rule2">Rule 2</a>, or any other
|
||
rule, related problem, you are <strong>strongly</strong> encouraged to revise and correct
|
||
your entry and then re-run the <code>mkiocccentry</code> tool.</p>
|
||
<p>If you choose to risk violating rules, be sure and explain your reason
|
||
for doing so in your <code>remarks.md</code> file.</p>
|
||
<p>See also <a href="next/rules.html#rule17">Rule 17</a>!</p>
