Using the CLI-Systems and the Command Line

Using the CLI-Systems and the Command Line Project description I am currently in the first year of a foundation degree in computer technology. I am required to complete an assignment about the Bash Command Line/Linux and to implement a range of commands and scripts. In particular I am required to: 1. Use a range of CLI utilities and applications-the more the better!; 2. Write CLI scripts for specified purposes (more information outlined in the assignment brief). Assignment Brief The assignment requires you to produce a written report documenting your skills in manipulating a computer system through the command line.  Screenshots should be used where appropriate. Tasks: 1)    Demonstrate a range of CLI utilities and applications. Draw on your own work to present and explain relevant examples. Examples: •    print disk usage; file compression & extraction;editing text; use of pipes;pattern matching (grep); stream editor (sed)] Additional credit will be given for the appropriate use of a range of the options available in each utility / application. 1)    Develop CLI scripts for the following: a.    Print, on the screen, details of the current system. [eg computer name, kernel version, uptime, free disk space, network details ….. ] Implement at least 2 options to determine how much detail is given ( e.g. all, summary). b.    Convert a measurement from one unit to another (in either direction). [e.g.  cm -> in.  and  in. -> cm] Use an option to specify the unit for the input  number Include an option to print a conversion table [e.g.   1cm = 0.39 in., 2 cm =0.79 in. …. 10cm = 3.94 in.] (Ensure that they are fully documented with commented source code and screenshots showing the successful use of the scripts) •    Develop your script for 2b to include a wide range of scripting techniques used in appropriate ways. [e.g.   loops, switch, user interaction during script execution] You could allow for the conversion of a wider range of units. •    Evaluate the use of CLI scripts in modern computer systems using specific examples where possible. You could consider both Windows and Linux systems.
