To build:
make all
The author provided us with an unobfuscated version. See Alternate code below.
To use:
./ant Makefile
./ant Makefile rule
where Makefile is a Makefile to use and rule is an optional rule to use.
Try:
./try.sh
Alternate code:
This version, ant.alt.c, was provided by the author in 2024, and is an unobfuscated version.
Alternate build:
make alt
Alternate use:
Use ant.alt as you would ant above.
Try:
./try.alt.sh
Judges' remarks:
Like much of POSIX, obfuscation has its place. Your task is to figure out where.
This entry comes complete with a POSIX-like command description. Interested POSIX balloters should lobby the IEEE for an obfuscated P1003 subcommittee.
Author's remarks:
See the file ant.README.txt.
