Overview We will start with understanding the individual components of an entire CLI. Generally we don’t put much attention to what we do. We just fire up a terminal or some say sheel and start typing our commands and get the result. That’s all. But there are a lot of things that goes behind all this. Terminal The very first component is the Terminal. So what is a Terminal? A terminal emulator, terminal application, term, or tty for short, is a program that emulates a video ter- minal within some other display architecture. Though typically synonymous with a shell or text terminal, the term terminal covers all remote terminals, including graphical interfaces. A terminal emulator inside a graphical user interface is often called a terminal window.A terminal window allows the user access to a text terminal and all its applications such as command-line interfaces (CLI) and text user interface (TUI) applications.

Kernel : It is the backbone of Linux OS, which is used to manage resources of Linux OS like memory, I/O, software, hardware management processes. User Shell Script Kernel PC h/w User writes script. Script contains instructions. Kernel interprets the instruction in machine language. As per the instruction kernel controls the PC hardware. Shell script : It’s a collection of OS commands or instructions. Advantages of Shell Script : Script is always a platform independent. Performance will be faster than programming languages. Very easy to debug. 3 Unix Shell Programming – by Dinesh Kumar S Chapter 2 SSH Client Secure Shell (or) SSH is a network protocol that is used to exchange or share information between two different networks. This is used on Linux & UNIX systems to access SHELL accounts. All the information exchanged/transmitted between networks is encrypted . It uses public key cryptography to authenticate remote computer user. Free Serial, Telnet, and SSH client Putty Tera Term Putty : It is a terminal emulator application which acts as client for SSH, Telnet, rLogin.

  • Augmented Unix Userland
    Project MXC-403 Augmented Unix Userland Major Qualifying Project Submitted to the Faculty of Worcester Polytechnic Institute in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree in Bachelor of Science in Computer Science By Sam Abradi [email protected] Ian Naval [email protected] Fredric Silberberg [email protected] Submitted On: April 30, 2015 Project Advisor: Professor Michael Ciaraldi [email protected] This report represents work of WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its web site without editorial or peer review. For more information about the projects program at WPI, see http: // www. wpi. edu/ Academics/ Projects . Abstract The Unix philosophy has resulted in stringing together simple general purpose utili- ties to accomplish complex tasks. However, using text as a communication medium between these programs requires several formatting utilities to transform output from one program into valid input to another. These transformations can be very complicated and confusing. This project looked at two alternative shell designs that use different communication methods between programs, simplifying interprogram communication and leveraging existing technologies to make developing new utilities and shell scripts easier. i Contents Abstracti List of Figuresv List of Tables vi 1 Introduction1 1.1 AUU Terminology.............................1 1.2 Motivation.................................1 1.3 The AUU Project.............................3 2 JSON Shell4 2.1 Motivation: Why JSON?.........................4 2.2 JSON Protocol Design..........................4 Streams..................................4 Standards and Definitions........................5 Example Use Case: ps..........................6 2.3 Tributary.................................8 Tributary Selectors............................8 Using Tributary to Standardize Output.................9 2.4 Utilities Implemented..........................
