1. Modify this MP so that you can use 'ls' instead of '/bin/ls' (i.e. the shell searches the path for the command to execute.).
2. Modify this MP so that the command prompt includes a counter that increments for each command executed (starting with 1). Your program should use the following prompt format: "Shell(pid=%1)%2> " %1=process pid %2=counter (You will need to change this into a correct printf format) Do not increment the counter if no command is supplied to execute.
3. Modify this MP so that '!NN' re-executes the n'th command entered. You can assume that NN will only be tested with values 1 through 9, no more than 9 values will be entered.
Shell(...)1> ls
Shell(...)2> !1 # re-executes ls
Shell(...)3> !2 # re-executes ls
Shell(...)4> !4 # prints "Not valid" to stderr
4. Modify the MP so that it uses waitpid instead of wait.
5. Create a new builtin command 'sub' that forks the program to create a new subshell. The parent shell should run the imtheparent() function just as if we were running an external command (like 'ls').
./shell
Shell(.n1..)1> sub
Shell(.n2..)1> exit # Exits sub shell
Shell(.n1..)1> exit # Exits back to 'real' shell
6. Create a new global variable to prevent a subshell from invoking a subshell invoking a subshell (i.e., more than 3 levels deep):
./shell
Shell(.n1..)1> sub
Shell(.n2..)1> sub
Shell(.n3..)1> sub # prints "Too deep!" to stderr
