gemsh

gemsh is a simple bash-like implementation of a shell in C. Written as a project for Operating System course. It demonstrates the basics of a regular shell pipeline: read, parse, fork, exec.


Supported features:

  • multiple-line commands
  • stdin/stdout/stderr redirection
  • childish job-control: foreground/background process group management, some simple builtins
  • piping
  • signal handling (ctrl+c, ctrl+z)
  • only builtins are: cd,jobs, fg, bg

Also for now it has many limitations:

  • No quoting arguments
  • No globbing
  • No history builtin, arrow keys rip :(
