To build:

make all

To use:

./bright some_file

Try:

./try.sh

Compile this program and give a filename as an argument.

Mr. Bright exploits the C pre-processor, similar variables and excessive shifting to obfuscate an otherwise useful binary display program. This gives you a small example of what it is like to maintain the Bourne shell! :-}
