Cody Boone Ferguson 009e1b7522 Link in SECURITY.html to all web pages
The location of the link is in the About menu under the 'Contacting the
IOCCC' and above 'Thanks for the help'. At first I had it at the very
bottom, under 'IOCCC markdown guidelines', but it seemed better to have
it closer to contacting the IOCCC. This is the same location in the no
JavaScript menu (which, for those who do not know or forget, is not a
requirement except for some screen sizes).

The top level Makefile has a new 'security' rule. Updated make help.

Typo fixes in make help.

SECURITY.html has had a few updates as well: change the wording of entry
code is unsupported (it now says 'ALL CODE IN ALL IOCCC ENTRIES IS
UNSUPPORTED!!') and it now links to the mkiocccentry repo and how to
report a possible security vulnerability in that repo; as that IS
supported - and since there was reference to discussing security
concerns is in SECURITY.html - even though the entries will not receive
security updates - it seemed a good idea to have a link to report such
security issues in the mkiocccentry repo. Perhaps the FAQ needs to be
updated for this too.

To build:

    make

To use:

    ./prog

Try:

    ./try.sh

Judges' remarks:

At this point you might be wondering, WTF?*

  • What The Freak (polite form)

  • What's This For? (you may be wondering)

  • What the Fish (python form)

How is this code obfuscated? Well look again:

    less prog.c

    more prog.c

Where did those underscores come from? Well RTFS!**

** Read the Freaking Source (polite form) ** Read The Freaking Screen (polite form)

If you are still puzzled, look at prog.c with your favorite text editor.

Author's remarks:

Follow these instructions literally!

    cat prog.c
    gcc -w -o prog prog.c
    ./prog

You will do a double take.

Hint 1: Do less prog.c. You will see an emphasized string if your terminal supports bold.

Hint 2: Do wc -c prog.c. This is very long one-liner.

Hint 3: Open the source with an editor like vim or emacs.
