linesnow

linesnow is a simple readline tool which supports

1. terminal input & output
2. moving the cursor left or right

It is my homework for PKU HPCFS Lecture_2 : c++ project programming.

example

1. clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/snow276/linesnow.git

2. compile to generate an executable file linesnow

cmake -B build
cmake --build build

3. execute the executable file linesnow

./linesnow

1. then you can type characters in the terminal, move the cursor left or right, press 'backspace' to delete characters, and press 'enter' to finish a line. linesnow echoes the line that you type.

limitations

1. only supports single-line input
2. doesn't support shortcut keys such as CTRL+D, CTRL+A
