This is a shell implemented in C as a university assignment for an operating systems course. While the assignment received a perfect score, there are areas where improvements can be made.
- Basic shell functionalities such as executing commands, handling arguments, and managing processes.
- Pipeline implementation for command chaining.
- Debug messages for troubleshooting (optional).
- Single-file implementation due to assignment constraints.
- Pipeline Implementation: The pipeline implementation could be optimized for better performance and reliability. There were some rare cases where the pipeline got stuck, unlike the behavior of the Bash shell.
- Function Modularity: Some functions could be broken down into smaller, more modular components for better readability and maintainability.
- Debug Messages: While debug messages were provided, they could be enhanced by redirecting them to a log file for better organization and analysis.
This shell implementation was reviewed on Code Review. Check out the feedback and suggestions provided there.
