+# Towers of Hanoi in sed.
+#
+# @(#)hanoi.sed 8.1 (Berkeley) 6/6/93
+#
+#
+# Ex:
+# Run "sed -f hanoi.sed", and enter:
+#
+# :abcd: : :<CR><CR>
+#
+# note -- TWO carriage returns, a peculiarity of sed), this will output the
+# sequence of states involved in moving 4 rings, the largest called "a" and
+# the smallest called "d", from the first to the second of three towers, so
+# that the rings on any tower at any time are in descending order of size.
+# You can start with a different arrangement and a different number of rings,
+# say :ce:b:ax: and it will give the shortest procedure for moving them all
+# to the middle tower. The rules are: the names of the rings must all be
+# lower-case letters, they must be input within 3 fields (representing the
+# towers) and delimited by 4 colons, such that the letters within each field
+# are in alphabetical order (i.e. rings are in descending order of size).
+#
+# For the benefit of anyone who wants to figure out the script, an "internal"
+# line of the form
+# b:0abx:1a2b3 :2 :3x2
+# has the following meaning: the material after the three markers :1, :2,
+# and :3 represents the three towers; in this case the current set-up is
+# ":ab : :x :". The numbers after a, b and x in these fields indicate
+# that the next time it gets a chance, it will move a to tower 2, move b
+# to tower 3, and move x to tower 2. The string after :0 just keeps track
+# of the alphabetical order of the names of the rings. The b at the
+# beginning means that it is now dealing with ring b (either about to move
+# it, or re-evaluating where it should next be moved to).
+#
+# Although this version is "limited" to 26 rings because of the size of the
+# alphabet, one could write a script using the same idea in which the rings
+# were represented by arbitrary [strings][within][brackets], and in place of
+# the built-in line of the script giving the order of the letters of the
+# alphabet, it would accept from the user a line giving the ordering to be
+# assumed, e.g. [ucbvax][decvax][hplabs][foo][bar].
