Many fixes and other updates to guidelines

This includes typos, fixing terms (according to the new terminology used by the IOCCC) and various other types of fixes.

Although I have gone through the entire file more does need to be done to make sure it all reads okay and that all links are correct.

Let's see if the issue of broken links in the script are reported here. I tested some that were reported broken on my end and they work fine on the server. What's more is that most of them I did not even touch ...

Looks like some checks failed .. will wait until this issue is resolved.

I see the problem but if all is good it seems that there is a display problem with the script on my end (odd it did not show up here).

Fixed it seems. Missing '#'.

Unfortunately on my end I can't use the script as I see something really wrong: it shows all the links as bad. Not sure why that is. Very bizarre.

Kind of not a good sign. I see locally:

# Missing file linked in: guidelines.md
# Markdown line: FAQ on "[Mastodon](../faq.html#try_mastodon)"
./../faq.html

and every other link is broken too. Downloaded the file from here (the script) and same issue. But obviously that's not broken and everything works here ...

But the good thing at least is it's only this file. But why I can't figure out. Very odd.

QUESTION for you @lcn2

Do you wish for the guidelines, rules and FAQ to refer to the simplified interface to mkiocccentry prior to it being done ?

Okay I'll keep this in mind. I'm out of energy for now but hopefully tomorrow morning I can do more before company calls here.

Good luck with the server!
