Part of the solution asbelow need to complete the code
#include
#define BUF 1024 #define ARG 32 /*******************************************************************/
int main (int argc, char ** argv) { char lbuf[BUF]; char * args[ARG]; char ** arg; char * prompt = "THIS IS MY SHELL:" ; // Read input while (!feof(stdin)) { // Get command fputs (prompt, stdout); fflush(stdout); if (fgets(lbuf, BUF, stdin )) { // tokenize the input into args array arg = args; *arg++ = strtok(lbuf," \t"); if (args[0]) { // Add your codes here. HINT: First you need to compare args[0] with internal/external commands. Once comparison is true, then pass the command to system() to execute it. if (!strcmp(args[0],"exit")) { break; } else { } } } } return 0; }
