Operating System (22516) : "Implementing Directory Management Using Shell Script"

This micro-project report details the implementation of a directory management system using shell scripting. The project aims to perform functions like listing directories, creating directories, and modifying directories. A shell script was created with a menu-driven interface to allow users to navigate directories, rename, copy, move and delete directories. The output screenshots show examples of creating, renaming and listing directories through the shell script. Skills developed include learning shell scripting commands and directory management techniques.

MICRO-PROJECT REPORT
“Implementing Directory Management using Shell Script”

1.0 Rationale:-
In our project we implement the Directory management system by using shell
programming. Shell is a software program that interprets commands from the users so that
the operating system can understand them and perform the appropriate functions.
Directory management constitutes the functions dealing with organization and
maintenance of various directories. Directories usually contain files of any type, but this
may vary between file systems. The content of a directory does not affect the directory
object itself.
In this directory management system project we perform function like Listing
Directories, Creating Directories, Modifying Directories

2.0 Aims/Benefits of Micro-project:-


A directory is a location for storing files on your computer. Directories are found in
a hierarchical file system, such as Linux, MS-DOS, OS/2, and Unix. A shell script is
small computer program that is designed to be run or execute by the Unix shell, which is
command-line interpreter. A shell script is basically a set of commands.

3.0 Course Outcome achieved :-


1] The procedure of allocating CPU to the given process using the specified OS.
2] Apply file management techniques.
