Cody Boone Ferguson 5d668baaa5 Several manifest updates
Changed 'description of entry in JSON' to 'entry summary and manifest in
JSON'.

Changed 'how to run' (for try scripts) to 'script to try entry'.

Changed 'how to run if you have the primes utility' to 'script to try
entry if you have the primes utility'.

Changed 'how to run alternative code' to 'script to try alternative
code'.

A number of other more specific (to particular entries or maybe even a
single entry, 2019/ciura if not any others) descriptions were also
changed.

Judges' remarks:

The original version did not have a ';' character in the first line. This caused a number of System V C pre-preprocessors to gripe about a syntax error.

This program is a masterpiece of obfuscation and humor. Larry Wall (the hacker who gave us rn and patch, etc.) asks you to compile and consider the warning message generated by the C compiler. Then execute the program and type characters into its standard input. You will see why the compiler documents the program.
