For macOS Apple clang version 15.0.0 (clang-1500.3.9.4) compiler, we have silenced the warnings that can be silenced. We also updated `.gitignore` for `2014/maffiodo2` and `1995/vanschnitz`.
To build:
make all
NOTE: this entry requires X11/Xlib.h header file and the X11 library to
compile. macOS users running Mountain Lion and later will need to download and
install XQuartz in order to compile and run this
entry.
Bugs and (Mis)features:
The current status of this entry is:
STATUS: INABIAF - please **DO NOT** fix
STATUS: missing or dead link - please provide them
For more detailed information see 1996 jonth bugs.
To use:
./jonth :0 :0
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
These are supposed to happen. As is written in the The Jargon File:
That's not a bug, that's a feature.
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
xrefresh(1) command.
Have a nice(1) day.
