2014-02-17 The IOCCC is a contest I really like. I'd love to participate in it some day. Today, I came across the story, how it all began, in the FAQs. [0] Of course, I had a look at the Bourne shell's mac.h. [1] Yay! That made my day! :-D Being on the topic, I had a look at the Wikipedia page of the Bourne shell. [2] There, I came to the discussion page. [3] It's at least as interesting to read than the article page itself (Schily vs. TEDickey). Back to the IOCCC: All the entries I've studied are really im- pressive, but the anonymous ``honerable mention'' in the first contest [4] has it's very own simplicity. I like it a lot.
