Shell in C++

A simple terminal shell implemented in C++.

Overview

This project is a basic command-line shell written in C++. It aims to provide users with a minimal interface to execute commands, similar to traditional UNIX shells.

Features

• Command Execution: Execute standard system commands.
• Custom Prompt: Displays a custom shell prompt.
• Basic Error Handling: Handles simple errors during command execution.
• Auto Completion: Automatic command completions.

Note: This shell is currently in the development phase, and additional features may be added in the future.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• A C++ compiler (e.g., g++)
• A Windows operating system (It is Windows specific)

Compilation

To compile the shell, navigate to the project directory and run:

g++ start.cpp -o shell

Ensure that all necessary source files are included in the compilation command.

Running the Shell

After compilation, run the shell with:

./shell

You should see the custom shell prompt, indicating that the shell is ready to accept commands.

Project Structure

• start.cpp: The main entry point of the shell.
• include/: Directory containing header files.
• src/: Directory containing source files.
• shell.exe: Compiled executable (may vary based on your operating system).
