fix experimental web site links in experimental index.html sync CNAME with https://github.com/ioccc-src/winner/blob/master/CNAME improve .gitignore files Added to each .gitignore file, comments on how to sort. Put into winner .gitignore files, ignore *.dSYM files. Put into winner .gitignore files, ignore indent.c, indent.o and indent files. This is done so that the winner directory can more self contained. We did not put into winner .gitignore files, however, excludes of .-files as found in the top level .gitignore file. As .-files are not allowed by mkiocccentry, the top level .gitignore file remains sufficient. Added to year level .gitignore files, excludes of mkentry or iocccsize files as needed. Sorted (via sort -d -u) all .gitignore file.
To build:
make alt
To use:
./lycklama.alt < some_file
To see why we recommend the alternate version instead of the original version, see below and the Original code section.
Try:
This alternate version, which we recommend you you try first, prior to the
original, so that you can see what it did back in 1985, slows down the output
which will provide more fun output. It is slowed down by the usleep(3) library
call with a configurable time to sleep. The default is 500 but you can
reconfigure it like:
make SLEEP=700 clobber alt
which would set it at 700. Then, whether you use the default value or not, try:
./lycklama.alt < lycklama.c
# notice the difference between the above and this one:
./lycklama.alt < lycklama.alt.c
# also try:
./lycklama.alt < lycklama.orig.c
./lycklama.alt < README.md
./lycklama.alt < Makefile
Original code:
As explained above, because modern systems run this entry way too fast to fully appreciate what it does, we encourage you to first try the alternate version. After this, however, you might wish to try the original version, fixed for modern systems.
Original build:
make all
Original use:
./lycklama < some_file
Original try:
./lycklama < lycklama.c
./lycklama < lycklama.alt.c
./lycklama < lycklama.orig.c
./lycklama < Makefile
Judges' remarks:
Run the program, redirecting a file into it, and notice how it redisplays it. The program itself looks like tty noise.
