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.
To build:
This entry requires SDL. See the FAQ on "SDL1 and SDL2" for information on how to install it if you haven't already.
If you have SDL installed:
make
To use:
./jetro
Judges' remarks:
We have seen entries with SDL graphics in the past, now it's time for SDL sound. This entry can even be run on a computer without a sound card with an appropriate setting of an environment variable - for that you'll have to dig into the SDL documentation.
Can you figure out how the notes are encoded and program a different melody?
Author's remarks:
To compile the entry you need SDL library, which is used only for audio
output. To run the entry make sure you have audio output available. The entry
plays 22KHz 16 bit mono music with a small softsynth. When the music plays,
you can stop the application by pressing enter, as the code will just wait
with one call to getchar() before it quits.
