As requested on GitHub: a tool that will be written, readme2index, will,
as explained:
'... will take the converted HTML from the README.md markdown and
inject it into an HTML template. Things such title, award one and
author information will be injected into the HTML page ahead of the
HTML that was converted from the README.md markdown. Without going
into details of HOW at this time, the result will be a coherent HTML
index.html page with the winner title / award, winning author
information, and important file links come from other sources and
NOT from the README.md file.
The text from the 1st award line, thru the authorship information,
and up to but not including the "## To build:" line in the README.md
file will just get in the way. Moreover authors might be tempted to
try and maintain that top of README.md text instead of working with
the author/_author_handle_.json and winner .winner.json files.
This was done with my[0] sgit(1) (https://github.com/xexyl/sgit) tool like:
sgit -o -n -e '/^## To build:/,$p' '[12][0-9][0-9][0-9]/*/README.md'
[0] Is that shameless self-promotion? I don't know but I don't care: it
is generally a very useful tool and has been used in other repos too.
Besides, I've done it many times before and it's a great example that I
will be adding to the README.md file of the tool, one I hadn't thought
of doing.

Bugs and (Mis)features:
The current status of this entry is:
STATUS: INABIAF - please **DO NOT** fix
For more detailed information see 1988 dale in bugs.md.
Try:
./dale hello world
./dale these files are in this directory: *
What do the following commands do and why do they do it? Why do they differ in format from the above command? Finally how can you get the more likely desired behaviour?
./dale $(printf "the following files exist in this directory:\n%s\n" *)
./dale "$(printf "the following files exist in this directory:\n%s\n" *)"
Alternate code:
If you have an old enough compiler you can try the original version in dale.alt.c. To use:
make clobber alt
Use dale.alt as you would dale above. To understand the differences in more
detail, see thanks-for-fixes.md.
Judges' remarks:
This entry has a very twisted flow of control via recursion, iteration and multi-processing. Try to understand what is being done with the system calls.
