Woods X Universities Space Research Association X NASA Ames Research Center X X X "Use an algorithm, go to jail." X [anon., circa 1988, pre-Morris worm era] X X X Myriad formats have been proposed for network-mailable X data. A major difficulty undermining the popularity of most X file/message bundlers is that the sender assumes prior X installation of the computational dual of such bundling X software by the receiver. Command shell archives alleviate X this problem somewhat, but still require standardization for X the function of data compression and mail-transparency X encoding. On Unix, these coding format quandaries are over- X come by planting a novel Trojan Horse in the archive header X to perform negotiationless decoding. X X Specifically, we outline the development of an extraor- X dinarily compact portable (un)bundler to (dis)assemble X data-compressed, binary-to-ASCII-converted, length-split, X and checksummed directory structures using standard Unix X tools. Miniature versions of counterparts to a Lempel-Ziv X coder ('compress' or 'squeeze') and an efficient bit packet- X izer ('btoa') are compiled on-the-fly at mail destination X sites where they may not already exist. These are written X in purposefully obfuscated-C to accompany similarly-shrunk X shell command glue. This resulting shell archiver is dubbed X 'shark'. X X 'Shark' procedure overhead consumes as few as three X dozen shell lines (or ~1100 bytes), commensurate with the X size of many Internet mail headers; it amortizes favorably X with message size. 'Shark' is portable across Unix vari- X ants, while the underlying technique is inherently general- X izable to other encoding schemes. X X In the function-theoretic sense of minimal X Chaitin/Kolmogorov complexity, and within a modified Shannon X model of communication, the 'shark' effort aims to construct X a "shortest program" for source decoding in the Turing- X universal Unix environment. X X ---------------------------------------------- X X Oh, the shark has pretty teeth, dear-- X And he shows them pearly white X Just a jackknife has Macheath, dear-- X And he keeps it out of sight. X X [Bertolt Brecht, Threepenny Opera] X X ---------------------------------------------- X X We have ported this program to a wide variety of systems. Among X these are: X X SunOS 4.1 / Sun Sparcstation 1 (using both 'cc' and 'gcc 1.37.1') X SunOS 4.0.3 / Sun 3 X BSD 4.3 / VAX 8650 X SEIUX / Sumitomo Electric Ustation/S X Sony NEWS-OS 3.3 / Sony NEWS (fairly vanilla 4.3BSD) X System V.? / Hitachi 2050 X System V.? / NEC EWS 4800 X UNIOS-B / Omron Luna X Dynix / Sequent Balance ('cc' for Natl. Semi. base + 'gcc 1.36') X Unicos / Cray 2 X X We (the authors) feel this program is obfuscated for the X following reasons: X X (0) This is one of the few programs you'll see WHOSE VERY UTILITY X DEPENDS ON ITS OBFUSCATION! X X (1) The contest entry may be used to send its wonderful self to X anyone in the Unix world! Virus writers need not apply... X X (2) The basic idea is twisted enough to be patentable, but is, X out of the kindness of our hearts (as well as to maintain X eligibility for the large IOCCC prize fund), dedicated to X the public domain. Claude Shannon, meet Alan Turing. X X (3) Meta-obfuscation is via obfuscated description (see ABSTRACT). X X (4) "Literary" allusion. Production code contains a reference to X self-reference, preserved at amazing cost for sheer perversity. X X (5) Many, many micro obfuscations below, honed over three years X time, in shell as well as C. Ask about the 'tar' pit escape, X the argv[0] flip, Paul's &4294967295 portability hack, the X "void where prohibited by flaw" fix, the scanf() spacesaver, X shift shenanigans, signal madness, exit()ing stage left, and X source-to-source transformations galore. X X For extra credit: X X Construct 'sharkmail', to auto-split sharkives into mailable X segments and mail them. Here's a simple one, which could be X extended to enable auto-reassembly with one shell cmd at the X far end. X X ------------------------ cut here for sharkmail ----------------------- X #!/bin/sh X m=$1; shift X shark $* | split -800 - /tmp/shark$$ X n=`ls /tmp/shark$$* | wc -l | sed 's/ *//'` X p=0 X for f in `ls /tmp/shark$$*` X do X p=`expr $p + 1` X mail -s "bundle ($p of $n) from '`whoami`'" $m < $f X done X rm /tmp/shark$$* X ------------------------ end of sharkmail ----------------------------- X X XShark history: X X May 1987: Karl Fox introduces 1023-byte zcat.c to USENET. X It's too late for the 4th IOCCC. X X May 21, 1987: James A. Woods extends idea to construct self X decompressing shar Trojan horse, utilizing 'cc', 'shar', X 'zcat', & 'atob'; size: 2303 bytes. X X May 23, 1987: 'jaw' trims 250 bytes without much thought. X X June 2, 1987: 52 lines of shell, 1991 bytes, now made with 'tar', X short-circuit C-compile at far end, dual-use main.c, X portability mods. (jaw) X X Mar-May 1988: abortive run at 5th IOCCC. X jaw.c - 1529 bytes. compile line: 152 bytes. X generated funny code with execvp() to invoke shell. X X Aug 29, 1988: production version, now at 1830 bytes. X X Jan 1990: Paul Eggert does tour-de-force shark re-engineering. X X May 24, 1990: collaboration yields 999-byte jaw.c core (see above) X and 1530-byte production shell code (w/comments). X Eggert comes through with lion's share of improvements. X 7th IOCCC code now faster than the atob/zcat it replaces. X X May 1990: 'jaw' develops experimental replacement using X Dan Bernstein's high-compression 'squeeze'.

It was a dark and stormy night for C when the X ANSI C committee added trigraphs to the standard. Too bad X that they didn't just simply require a more reasonable ISO X character set. X X The common.mk (non-ANSI) makefile uses sed to form scjones.alt.c. X The scjones.alt.c is similar to the original scjones.c source, X but with all the trigraphs converted.

X XWARNING: In the future, we will be passing ANSI programs through a X trigraph filter before reading. Trigraph-ifacation will X not be a major consideration in future contests. People X should exploit more interesting features of ANSI C. X X XSelected notes from the author: X X Since this year's contest is dedicated to ANSI C, here is a X strictly conforming entry. In accordance with the ANSI X definition of a strictly conforming program it does not produce X output dependent on any unspecified, undefined, or implementation X defined behavior, and it does not exceed any of the minimum X implementation limits. It adheres to all of the syntactic and X semantic constraints of the standard, #includes the relevant X headers for the functions it uses, and uses the EXIT_SUCCESS and X EXIT_FAILURE macros to return a correct success/fail status to X the invoking program. It also uses trigraphs for characters X which are not in the Invariant Code Set of ISO 646:1983, so it X will be portable to machines with deficient (from C's standpoint) X character sets. In short, it should be very widely portable.

X XSelected notes from the author: X X If you like shell programming you may also admire my X creative quoting. (I use echo to create an alias X which when run calls cc with the -D option to create a X C macro with double quotes in it. ARRRRRGGGHHH!) X X The program is totally portable, but the compile X commands are very shell specific so don't be TOO mad X at me if they don't work for you. X X If you want to put these commands in a Makefile you X must add 4 - four - backslashes at the end on first X line. (At least that's what works here.) X X If everything works correctly it create an executable X named c which checks whether your compiler supports X nested comments. I've stolen the "/*/*/0*/**/1" from X somewhere so don't give me any points for it. Of X course neither ANSI nor K&R support nested comments X when properly implemented, but what the heck.

X 1026 Blair Ave. X St. Paul, MN 55104 X USA X XJudges' comments: X X usage: westley <number> X X If you would rather "Daisy" someone other than Westley, rename X the program as needed. :-) X X Read each block of code as if it were a piece of correspondence. X For example, the first block of code would read: X X charlie, X doubletime me, OXFACE! X not interested, get out X mainly die, charly, *die* X signed charlotte X X The original source had control-L's after each code block. To X make it easier on news readers, we converted each control-L to X a blank line. X X Some ANSI compilers will not accept '1s' as a short integer - for X these compilers replace the '1s' with '1'. X X XSelected notes from the author: X X This is a "Picking the Daisy" simulation. Now, instead of mangling a X daisy, simply run this program with the number of petals desired as X the argument. X X This is a good counter-example to peoples' complaints that C doesn't X have an "English-like" syntax. X X Lint complains about everything - null effect, xxx may be used before X set, statement not reached, return(e) and return. Lint dumps core X on some systems. My personal favorite lint complaint is X X "warning: eroticism unused in function main". X X Also obviously, (char)lotte and (char*)lie are incompatible types...
