The commit a1c86c8a7a modified
the navigation bars to include "Original C", so all tarballs
had be update, sorry (tm Canada 🇨🇦). In particular:
The navigation bar for a winning entry now has a "_Original C_" link
(between the ✅ and the Inventory on the right hand side) so that one
may easily view the original C code that was submitted for IOCCC judging.
In addition, a number of other commits since that time
modified other winning entries.
Ran `make update` to perform the above.
To build:
make
To use:
./newbern [file.dat arg]
Try:
./try.sh
Judges' remarks:
The program is formatted using the same font glyphs as the example data file.
Author's remarks:
This is a configurable banner(1)-like program.
Examples:
- To convert a character glyph into a data file:
./newbern char < some_nicely_shaped_text >> data_file
- To print a string using glyphs from a data file:
./newbern data_file a_string
Extra functionality
The program can also act as a Morse encoder, unarguably.
It also has double-super-secret encryption capabilities. Decryption is left as an exercise for the reader.
Portability
The program assumes an ASCII operating environment.
The program is best viewed with tab-stops set to 8.
