Simple shell

In this project, we must write a simple UNIX command interpreter using C language, similar to the UNIX shell. This will be our final project of the first trimestrer at Holberton School"

For Holberton School. Cohort 16. Is a README.md for the repository 0X16.C - Simple Shell.

Compilation

gcc -Wall -Werror -Wextra -pedantic *.c -o hsh

Testing

Your shell should work like this in interactive mode:

$ ./hsh
($) /bin/ls
hsh main.c shell.c
($)
($) exit
$

But also in non-interactive mode:

$ echo "/bin/ls" | ./hsh
hsh main.c shell.c test_ls_2
$
$ cat test_ls_2
/bin/ls
/bin/ls
$
$ cat test_ls_2 | ./hsh
hsh main.c shell.c test_ls_2
hsh main.c shell.c test_ls_2
$
