Prepare for the winners of **IOCCC28**. > However these are not the 2024 droids you are looking for. :-) The HTML menu (both JavaScript and non-JavaScript) has been updated. The `Status -> Rules and guidelines' have been replaced with two separate menus `Status -> IOCCC rules` and `Status -> IOCCC guidelines`. Added a new top level `social.html` page: built from a new `social.md`. Sorted rules for building specific web pages in the top level `Makefile`. Added `make social` to make the `social.html` page from `social.md`. The `bin/gen-top-html.sh` now is able to process a argument of **social** to process the new top level `social.html` page. Changed `bin/gen-top-html.sh` VERSION from "2.0.0 2025-03-13" to "2.0.1 2025-07-25". Below `About -> Home page` a new `About -> IOCCC social media` menu item as added. Because the menu change touched every HTML file, we changed the general copyright date range for HTML files from "1984-2024" to "1984-2025" due to the extensive changes made for **IOCCC28**. Those markdown files that were modified in 2025 had their copyright date range also changed from "1984-2024" to "1984-2025". Rebuilt tarballs and sitemap due to the extensive HTML rebuilding. Ran `make update` to perform the above.
To build:
make clobber all
and follow the instructions this will give you.
If your compiler will not read from /dev/tty see the Alternate
code section below.
To use:
./spinellis
Type in or copy paste some C code, perhaps from input.txt, and send EOF (typically ctrl-d).
Now run again:
./spinellis
Alternate code:
For clang or compilers that won't read from /dev/tty, we provide this version.
Alternate build:
make clobber alt
and follow the instructions.
Alternate use:
./spinellis.alt
Type in or copy paste some C code, perhaps from input.txt, and send EOF (typically ctrl-d).
Now run again:
./spinellis.alt
Judges' remarks:
We enjoyed this entry this year; however in the future programs must be able to be compiled from within a Makefile without the need of human intervention.
Author's remarks:
This program can be configured to do almost everything. The configuration is done during compile time by typing in C code that one would like the program to perform. A trivial example is given in the `how to compile' section but the possibilities are clearly limited only by your imagination and programming skills.
