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.

Judges' remarks:
This tiny program outputs what looks like a tiny keyboard. OK, so the letters are missing. But that is no problem because this program identifies the lower case letters that were pressed!
It is one of those minimal keyboards without all of those confusing symbols keys. No shift for SHOUTING CAPS but at least it does not have that useless CAPS LOCK key!
We recommend that you completely deconstruct / figure out how this program works and does what it does. Can you extend this program to deal with a full QWERTY keyboard? Can you then minimize the size of that code?
Author's remarks:
Limitation
This program ignores non-lower case letters.
Obfuscation
foris not used.- A part of the program is encrypted.
