# Minishell
|
|
|
|
Minishell is a 42 School project that involves creating a minimalistic shell in C language. The shell should be able to handle basic commands, manage environment variables and implement several built-in functions.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- Prompt management (display, editing, history)
|
|
- Command execution (with or without arguments)
|
|
- Basic shell operations (pipes, redirections)
|
|
- Environment variables management (listing, setting, unsetting)
|
|
- Built-in functions management (echo, cd, env, exit, export, pwd, unset)
|
|
|
|
## Getting started
|
|
|
|
1. Clone this repository: `git clone https://github.com/<your_username>/minishell.git`
|
|
2. `cd` into the cloned directory: `cd minishell`
|
|
3. Run the `make` command to compile the program: `make`
|
|
4. Start the shell by running the executable: `./minishell`
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Once the shell is started, you can enter commands as you would with any other shell. The following are some examples of commands that can be executed:
|
|
|
|
- Display the working directory: `pwd`
|
|
- List files in the current directory: `ls`
|
|
- Change directory: `cd <directory_name>`
|
|
- Print the value of an environment variable: `echo $<variable_name>`
|
|
- Set an environment variable: `export <variable_name>=<value>`
|
|
- Unset an environment variable: `unset <variable_name>`
|
|
- Display a list of environment variables: `env`
|
|
- Exit the shell: `exit`
|
|
