See it walk the maze in front of your very own eyes. + +To prove that you can do anything in vi, I wrote a couple of macros that +allows vi to solve mazes. It will solve any maze produced by maze.c +that was posted to the alt.sources last month. (Maze.c is also included +in this posting as well as an example of its output.) + +The uncommented version of the macros was sent to alt.sources last month. +However, so many people mailed me requesting the commented version of the +macros that I decided to post it. I have made some modifications to the +original macros to make them easier to follow and also after I learnt +that you can escape the special meaning of '|' in macros by using '^V|'. + +Save this article and unshar it. Then read maze.README. + +After studying these macros, anyone who cannot write an emacs emulator +in vi macros should just curl up and :q!. + +Coming soon to a newsgroup near you: "Vi macros solve Tower of Hanoi", +and a repost of the original "Turing Machine implemented in Vi macros" + +Anyone who has a version of these macros for edlin or nroff, please post. |
