Turtle Race implemented in Sendmail

More obfuscated programming

Well, what can I say? Turtle Race was an introductory programming exercise at LTH, and Sendmail is such a bloated mail transport agent that it is possible to write small programs using its dreaded configuration file syntax.

# TURTLE RACE implemented in sendmail, by Linus Akesson, lft@df.lth.se
# If the name of this file is "turtle", type:
# echo "0 0" | /usr/lib/sendmail -bt -Cturtle
