A number of rules have been moved from entry `Makefile`s into the `1337.mk` include file to make it easier for these common rules to be updated or modified globally (by modifying the `1337.mk` include file). The entry level `Makefile`s are now similar in form to the /Makefile.example](https://github.com/ioccc-src/mkiocccentry/blob/master/Makefile.example) file from the other repo. The following make rules were moved into the `1337.mk` include file: - `make indent.c` - `make install` - `make diff_orig_prog` - `make diff_prog_orig` - `make diff_alt_prog` - `make diff_prog_alt` This simplifies the entry level `Makefile`s so that they mostly reflect the specifics of the particular entry. Mentioned in FAQ 4.2, that the make diff rules are in the `1337.mk` include file. Fixed invalid TAB character in `faq.md`. Removed `make clean` directives that removed `indent.c`. This file is now removed via `make indent_clean`, a clean rule that also removes `indent.c`. Removed `make clobber` directives that removed sandwich, This file is now removed via `make indent_clobber`, a clean rule that also removes `sandwich`. Added `make indent_clean` and `make indent_clobber` rules into the top level `Makefile` and the year level `YYYY/Makefile`. Performed `make quick_www` to accomplish the above and to test under macOS.
To build:
make
To use:

Try:
For some fun every time you log in try running this from your .bashrc or
equivalent file!
You might also like to try:
./try.sh
INSULTS=15 ./try.sh
Judges' remarks:
One could argue that this program was a "diseased dumpster of tripe"
but I suspect that would only result in the judges being heckled as a
"scum-encrusted congress of obscurity" (but only if it was in the early
evening of Dec 22, 2000).
Can you find out how it stores the insult strings? Can you then take an insult and figure out when it will be uttered?
Authors' remarks:
This program was broadcast from deep within the Zarbonic Cluster and received at 9:03pm on March 21st, 2000 by Moxen N. Briddlebane. The original author, as designated by other components of the transmission, refers to himself simply as "Lord Zarbon", though offers no information in relation to the significance of that post. The sole purpose of this program appears to be to degrade and humiliate the people of this planet by calling them names. It takes no input, it only produces a single line of slanderous output.
The program appears to be rather confused, internally. It is
unclear whether or not "Lord Zarbon" truly understands the
mechanics of programming. What is particularly disturbing is
the curious method of insult-encoding employed by this program.
Furthermore, it is ambiguous how said data is arranged and why
it is necessary to resort to trigonometric functions to handle
it. One of the real mysteries involves the numbers 114 and
2, which are, according to Lord Zarbon, very deliberate.
