The menu in all html pages for the FAQ was fixed to link to the step 0
(of how to enter the contest) and also it was renamed ('Enter the
IOCCC').
I also went through the most important sections of the FAQ (how to
enter and the mkiocccentry related questions) and checked the
register.html, pw-change.html and submit.html pages. It is possible I
have missed something but I think it's in pretty good shape nonetheless.
To build:
make all
NOTE: this entry requires the X11/Xlib.h header file and the X11 library to
compile. For more information see the
FAQ on "X11".
Bugs and (Mis)features:
The current status of this entry is:
STATUS: INABIAF - please DO NOT fix
STATUS: missing or dead link or links - please provide it or them
For more detailed information see 1996/jonth in bugs.html.
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
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.
