Simple Bre-Shell

A simple UNIX command interpreter assigned in the curriculum at Holberton School

Description

Hsh is a simple rendition of a UNIX command language interpreter that reads and executes commands from standard input, or a file.

Initialization

Compile all c files in the repository, using the wildcard command (*.c), and run the executable:

$ gcc *.c -o hsh
$ ./hsh

Hsh can be used in two different modes, interactive and non-interactive.

Interactive hsh displays the prompt $ when it is ready to read a command and the user is able to interactively type or interrupt commands.

Example:

$./hsh
$

Non-interactive hsh will take a script and emulate an interactive shell by prompting the user to input values.

Example:

$ echo "echo 'hello world'" | ./hsh
'hello world'
$

Usage

echo "hello world" | ./hsh

or

./hsh
