/*
In the node.js intro tutorial (http://nodejs.org/), they show a basic tcp
server, but for some reason omit a client connecting to it. I added an
example at the bottom.

This Windows 10 Setup Script turns off a bunch of unnecessary Windows 10 telemetery, bloatware, & privacy things. Not guaranteed to catch everything. Review and tweak before running.

sed maze solver

Usage

sed -E -f solver.sed input where input is a file containing the maze.

For best results, resize your terminal to match the height of the maze. To disable animations, delete the lines containing p.

Maze format

The solver assumes the following:

  • The maze only contains the characters # \nSE
  • Every line has the same number of characters
  • There is only one start (S) and end (E)
