FILE COMMANDS IN LINUX

Aim

To write a shell script to stimulate the file commands: rm, cp, cat, mv, cmp, wc, split, diff.

Algorithm

Step 1: Start the Program

Step 2: Display the list of choice
Step 3: Get the user choice as input
Step 4: If the choice is 1, Create the new file using vi editor.
Step 5: If the choice is 2, display content of the file using cat command.
Step 6: If the choice is 3, Copy one file to another file using cp command.
Step 7: If the choice is 4, remove the file using rm command.
Step 8: If the choice is 5, move the file using mv command.
Step 9: If the choice is 6, compare the two files using cmp command.
Step 10: If the choice is 7, display the no.of lines,words,characters in the file using wc
command.
Step 11: If the choice is 8, split the single file into multiple files using split command.
Step 12: If the choice is 9, display the difference of the two files content using diff
command.
Step 13: If the choice is 10, exit.
Step 14: Stop the program.
