Landon Curt Noll c457b16358 fix all HTML headers
Renamed `ioccc.ico` to `favicon.ico`.

Correctly added use of `favicon.ico` to all constructed HTML headers.
Fixed the smart quote in HTML elements problem.

Moved HTML "DO NOT EDIT" comments down below at the bottom of the
HTML phase 1 section.  According to to the Nu Html Checker, a charset
attribute on a meta element found after the first 1024 bytes.

Changed `bin/md2html.sh` VERSION from "1.1.3 2024-03-28"
to "1.2 2024-03-30".

Improved `bin/gen-status.sh` to adjust the "status_update" value
only when the "contest_status" is changed.

Performed a `make www` to perform and test the above under macOS.

<p>We recommend you try the alt version first so you can get a better idea of what
this entry was like back in 1993. See the <a href="#original-code">original code</a>
section below to run the original.</p>

<p>NOTE: this entry requires the <code>X11/Xlib.h</code> header file and the X11 library to
compile. If you’re under macOS and do not know how to install and use X11
programs see <a href="../../faq.html#X11macos">FAQ 3.7 - How do I compile and use on macOS, an IOCCC entry that
requires X11?</a>.</p>

<h2 id="judges-remarks">Judges’ remarks:</h2>
<p>From the San Jose Mercury News (May 15, 1993 page 20A “West Hackers
trounce East in computer quiz game”):</p>
<pre><code>&quot;Since 1984, a contest has been held on Usenet for the most
unreadable, creative, bizarre but working C program&quot;, Gates
said. &quot;What is the name of this contest&quot;
&quot;Windows,&quot; shot back Gassee, naming Microsoft&#39;s premier product
- a product over which Apple sued Microsoft five years ago. Not
the right answer - it&#39;s &quot;The Obfuscated C Contest [sic]&quot; - but
it brought down the house of Apple partisans...</code></pre>
<p>[The expression on Bill Gates’ face was a sight to behold, as reported
to us by several who were there].</p>
<p>You must set <code>$DISPLAY</code> in your environment or the program will
dump core. This is not a bug as the author documented it as
a feature. :-)</p>
<p>The optional argument is integer which controls the speed of the
program. By default the speed is 9. You may want to try 1.</p>
<p>You will have to kill the program (i.e., ^C) to stop it.</p>
<p>WARNING: Slow servers or servers with long request queues will
continue to ‘run’ for a while after you have killed
the program.</p>
<p>This program makes your windows about as useful as their windows. :-)</p>
<h2 id="authors-remarks">Author’s remarks:</h2>
<p>The program uses a single backing pixmap (which is the size of the
screen) for all of its subwindows (with a little bit of trickery to
move the offset around). This is much better (and faster) than the
obvious implementation which would require a full-screen pixmap and
a separate backing pixmap for each subwindow.</p>
<p>The chance that a window breaks is based on it’s kinetic energy,
which in turn is based on it’s area and speed. How silly!</p>
