votes | A voting app written in PHP and shell

Typically you want to instruct your webserver to execute index.php (CGI or what have you) when users browse to a given path, such as votes/. Then, whoever is running the voting will want a shell with bin/ in their path. To create the initial directories needed to run everything else, you should first run init.sh. Also note, you must run init.sh and all other commands from the root of this repository, as index.php assumes the relative path votes/ exists. Positions and candidates are declared by creating text files in positions/. There is one text file per position, with the filename being the position's name, and the contents representing candidate names (one per line). In almost all cases throughout the source spaces are not handled correctly for identifiers (such as positions and candidates); I recommend sticking to all lowercase identifiers with no spaces.
