+My first quine, a bit late in my career, but I felt like doing it one lunch break.
+
+make builds the quine from its constituent parts to make editing it easier.
+
+The resulting `cquine.c` is the source and `cquine` is the quine binary.
+Running `cquine` should result in an output identical to `cquine.c`. You can
+verify this by running `test`.
