My own implementation of a shell. Reference implementation that helped me get started: link
Just wanted to get started with CMake and GoogleTest (even though I write in more of a C-like way).
PS: my nickname is lefos, thus, lefosh :)
The concept is that a shell is an infinite loop which takes input, processes it, and executes it.
All you need to do is write an shell_loop function and call it in main. Instictively, the loop function should have some functions within it that do the processing mentioned. Here we implement:
shell_readshell_split_argsshell_exec
First function reads input from the keyboard (makes sure to clean stdin too) -> beware the buffer overflows! Second function processes the input. It creates an array of strings, which are the arguments (e.g. "ls -la" becomes "ls" "-la"). Third function executes the input.
