The commit a1c86c8a7a modified
the navigation bars to include "Original C", so all tarballs
had be update, sorry (tm Canada 🇨🇦). In particular:
The navigation bar for a winning entry now has a "_Original C_" link
(between the ✅ and the Inventory on the right hand side) so that one
may easily view the original C code that was submitted for IOCCC judging.
In addition, a number of other commits since that time
modified other winning entries.
Ran `make update` to perform the above.
To build:
make all

NOTE: the two boards will be on top of each other so you will have to drag one off the other so that you can properly play.
NOTE: if there is no X service open this will crash. If this is the case you might try:
./jonth
Try:
./jonth host1:0 host2:0
Judges' remarks:
For extra credit, figure out how you can cheat by taking over a square already occupied by an opponent.
Author's remarks:
This is multi-user tic-tac-toe for X Windows. You may give one or two X displays as arguments to this game.
Known bugs:
Sometimes on Solaris, X gets confused and this program core dumps. The solution:
give two display arguments (./jonth host:0 host:0).
If one (or both) windows look like a copy of the window(s) below, try the
xrefresh(1) command.
Have a nice(1) day.
