II. Instructions To Run The Program

1. Clone the repo onto your local machine

git clone https://github.com/SwethaVipparla/Directory-Manager.git

2. Navigate to the Directory-Manager folder

cd Directory-Manager/

3. Compile the code

gcc Main.c -o Main

4. Run the compiled code

./Main

5. Input commands

Once the code is up and running, a menu appears, asking for the input corresponding to the function wished to execute. A command can be chosen from the list of features available.

 

III. Features

1. Add

Adds a file or directory to the current directory

add di/fi <new_name>

Note: The name entered must be a single word.

2. Move

Changes the current directory to another directory

move <path_to_destination_directory>

Note:
Since the initial directory we're in is "root", the path should be of the form "root/Directory1/Directory2/..."
The function takes you inside the last directory you entered. You must enter the complete path. If an incorrect path is entered, no change in the current position is performed.
For example: move root/Dir1/Dir12/Dir123 will move you inside the Dir123 directory.

3. Alias

Saves a directory with an alias

alias <path_to_directory> <new_alias>

Note:
Take care of format of address.
Alias can only be stored for directory addresses, as specified in the document. Alias must be a single word.

4. Teleport

Changes the current directory to another directory by taking in an existing alias

teleport <existing_alias>

5. Find

Finds directories and files with a given prefix inside the current directory

find <prefix>

Note: The prefix must be a single word.

6. List

Lists the contents of the current directory

ls

7. Quit

Exits the program

quit

Note: Make sure to add QUIT at the end of the test file if the input is taken via a text file.
