In this question, you will develop your own version of shell. Your shell will execute commands given by the user. The steps involved will be as follows: 1.User types a command, such as “cp ./OS ../newOS”. The command will be stored in a character array or a string object. 2.Shell will perform tokenization and separate the command and its arguments. 3.Shell will create a child process and use execvp system call to execute the command. 4.Shell will wait for the command to finish execution. 5.After the command has been executed, shell will ask the user to enter the command again. 6.Shell will exit when the command given by the user is “exit”.

Below is a sequence of shell commands that we typed into a bash terminal window on a Linux machine and some of the output that was produced. Your job is to write the output produced by the commands in the sequence. The commands are executed consecutively and changes made by one command may affect the output produced by later commands. First Create a Directory and Rename as Name_AridNo like (Ali_18-Arid-102) and then execute the following commands and show output. Shell > pwd /home/me/test > ls -F hw1 hw1.bak tmp/ > bash > touch it > cd tmp > ls –F justme.txt > echo “Dear Ali” > diary > cat ‘Name_AridNo’ /etc/hosts > pwd
Suppose we are using standard c++ to write our own shell We have a loop that goes through the command: for(const auto &commands : shell commands){ // we have a fork(), exec(), and wait() already. //how do use this type of loop to get exit status for the previous command and current command // and how do we even change the exit status? }
In this assignment, you will implement the shell “engine” as the “group” component, where all members are responsible for the following functionality: • A Command-Line Interpreter, or Shell Your shell should read the line from standard input (i.e., interactive mode) or a file (i.e., batch mode), parse the line with command and arguments, execute the command with arguments, and then prompt for more input (i.e., the shell prompt) when it has finished. 1. Interactive Mode In interactive mode, you will display a prompt (any string of your choosing) and the user of the shell will type in a command at the prompt.

What are two ways you can execute a shell script when you do not have executepermission for the file containing the script? Can you execute a shellscript if you do not have read permission for the file containing the script? 3. What is the purpose of the PATH variable?a. Set the PATH variable so that it causes the shell to search the followingdirectories in order:• /usr/local/bin• /usr/bin• /bin• /usr/kerberos/bin• The bin directory in your home directory• The working directoryb. If there is a file named doit in /usr/bin and another file with the samename in your ~/bin directory, which one will be executed? (Assume thatyou have execute permission for both files.)c. If your PATH variable is not set to search the working directory, howcan you execute a program located…
Write a bash script that accepts aperson’s name as a command-line argument and simply prints out the following greeting: "Good day, <name_entered>! Nice to meet you!", where <name_entered> is a positional parameter (i.e., a command-line argument) passed to the script. If the user does notenter a command-line argument when invoking this shell script, you will simply output: "Hope you have a great day!", without any name displayed. How to do this??

Create a simple BASH shell script that executes the commands specified by you, using a number of different escape characters. Submit the script to your instructor in order to ensure that it functions correctly. Create a more complete BASH shell script that requires user input to be read and uses either an if, case, for, or while construct. Be sure to specify exactly what the script should do, and then submit the script once you complete it.
1) Create a daemon in C in the Unix environment, your daemon must create a text file called aitDaemonLog.txt and populate it with 1000 lines of a string each line must be written after 10 seconds, the string must end with the count of the string;. 2)Create a shell script that lists all the files in the present working directory in long format name this file listMyFiles.sh. Write a c program that uses the system() function and uses it to run listMyFiles.sh 3)Write a c program to write a string of your own choosing into shared memory then read the contents of the shared memory created in 4)demonstrate in a c program how to use a fork to create a child process, using pipes let this child process send a message which is read by the parent process 5) Write a c program that shows the PID, PPID, UID and GID of a running process, let this process fork thus creating a child process, let the parent process count from 0 to 50 and the child process from 0 to 25 each process showing while counting…
In Unix/Linux: What is the difference between the . (ie the dot) char meaning for Shell globbing and . (ie the dot) char meaning for egrep ? What is the different between [] and [[ ]] in shell ? Hint : alternate form of test cmd Describe xargs with an example.
Write a bash script that would reside in the test directory, would take an integer as its sole command line argument, and would return a count of the number of project test cases involving exactly that many test files with extension ".bld". The test directory contains subdirectories which each have various numbers of test files in them. So the idea would be:E.g. ./countTests.sh 3 would count and return the number of test cases involving exactly three test files with extension ".bld"
Write a script that demonstrates the use of a shell function, You should use 5 functions with commands such as ls -l, date, du, df, cal. #!/bin/bash echo “Student Name” # Shell function demo with one function function mylist { echo "List of files in my directory” ls -l return } # Add more functions before the Main # Main program starts here # First function mylist # Second function # Third function # Fourth function # Fifth function
The security research group, Last Stage of Delirium, wrote some clean portbinding shellcode for Linux. Clean shellcode is shellcode that does not containNULL characters. NULL characters, as mentioned earlier, cause most bufferoverflow vulnerabilities to not be triggered correctly since the function stopscopying when a NULL byte is encountered.
