Gaining exposure to the Linux programming environment and process interaction.

• cd [dir] (omit [dir] to change to the home directory)
• pwd
• exit

Run multiple jobs on a single command line using ; to denote separate jobs

myshell> ls; ps; who

myshell> ls -la /tmp > output

Functions similarly to redirection of standard output, except standard output is prepended to existing content if the file already exists.

Specify a "batch file" of command lines to execute instead of interacting with the shell to execute command lines. Some example batch files are provided in the p4shell/batch-files directory.

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. Have fun!
