The objective of this project is to create a simple shell.

Compilation && Execution

To run the project

make && ./minishell

Implementation

• Show a prompt when waiting for a new command

• Search and launch the right executable based on the PATH variable or by using relative or absolute path

• It must implement the builtins like in bash:

• • echo with option ’-n’
• • cd with only a relative or absolute path
• • pwd without any options
• • export without any options
• • unset without any options
• • env without any options and any arguments
• • exit without any options

• ; in the command should separate commands like in bash

• ’ and " work like in bash except for multiline commands

• Redirections < > “>>” work like in bash except for file descriptor aggregation

• Pipes | work like in bash

• Environment variables ($ followed by characters) work like in bash

• $? work like in bash

• ctrl-C, ctrl-D and ctrl-\ have the same result as in bash
