Although there were a few lines that I kind of looked over quickly, not evaluating the files in question, those seemed in good state anyway. Often that was binary files. In some cases for example input more information was given but not in all as it was not always clear what it should be and it was not always clear that it was necessary. Some typos were fixed as well. Rebuilt .entry.json and index.html files. A few other files were also modified with some minor fixes like 2006/toledo2/README.md for one example. In that case I believe some binary files were referenced as %%REPO_URL%% but that is incorrect. These files were edited before the index.html files were rebuilt so they should be fine. It should be noted that although I have gone through the entire manifest and it might be that issue #1933 can be closed there is still a chance that when I go through the web pages that I might come across a problem that I will fix at that time. This might or might not be needed but that will be determined later. Now might be a good time to run make www but I will worry about that later (it might or might not even do anything, depending on what was missed).

Judges' remarks:
See the author's POSIX P1003.2-like documentation file ant.txt for more information.
This program demonstrates that POSIX doesn't guarantee readability. :-)
Author's remarks:
Some of the features of my entry are:
- "Lengthy" POSIX.2 style specification and manual :) :)
- Useful subset of POSIX.2 Extended Regular Expressions.
- Recursive ERE parser/compiler that generates an NFA railroad.
- Lazy NFA to DFA evaluation to improve performance speed.
- Code tested on a variety of platforms.
- Make driven test script.
- Can be compiled with ANSI or K&R C.
- Not a toy, but actually useful and usable on systems that use DOS.
