MyShell

Jet Jacobs Project 1 Assignment for CS-352

Running myShell

The prefered method of running is the following
    1) make
    2) make run
Additionally you may run with
    1) make
    2) ./myshell
Running with a batchfile
    1) make
    2) ./myshell "inputname"
    Substituting the values in quotes with the expected values

Testing

This was a smaller project, and I didn't want to spend the time to use a legitamite testing library.
As such I have made a few files that run really basic tests on both the parser and executor.
    For a parser test run
        1) make parserTest
    For a executor test run
        1) make execTest
    For both run
        1) make test

Known bugs

1. cd isn't able to be used with pipe or redirection of inputs

I do know there are more, but these are the ones that stuck out, and may help grading go smoother.

Retrospective

So, I think this was a reall fun project. I do tend to prefer to work in higher level languages,
so that caused some difficulty, but I did learn a lot about how the processes are actually handled.
At the begining I had a fundemental lack of understanding about both the theory, and implementation
of pipes. I think this has cleared most (I'm by no means an expert) of the issues I was having.

Additionally, It isn't as modular as I would have hoped. That being said, it works for the most part,
but it will need some serious TLC if I want it to be up to par.

Sugestions
    - More conscise methods
    - Slightly less comments
    - Find a better control flow rather than 100 if statments
