A simple C programme meant to emulate a standard BASH Shell. WARNING: It is prepared to run correclty only on Linux
Programmed as a university project. Has a few quirks and features:
- a
helpcommand which displays a simple overview of its features - the
cdcommand which was fully implemented by me - an
exitcommand - a simple
historycommand (stores the history of your current session) with a buffer, which deletes old entries when it reaches its limit - a custom parser written by me which properly handles quotation marks and apostrophes in interpreting commands
- when you provide it with a command that hasn't been implemented by me, it searches for that command using the
$PATHvariable and runs it with given arguments once it finds it
To properly configure and run this programme:
- navigate to this repo on your local machine (using a terminal)
- enter the
microshelldirectory - compile the programme with this command
$ gcc -ansi -Wall -o MatiShell main.c - now you can run it with
$ ./MatiShell
