======Project: Directory Listing======

A project for COURSENAME by YOUR NAME during the SEMESTER YEAR.

This project was begun on DATE and is anticipated to take 1 week. (Upon completion you can correct this with the actual length).

=====Objectives=====
State the purpose of this project. What is the point of this project? What do we hope to accomplish by undertaking it?

=====Prerequisites=====
In order to successfully accomplish/perform this project, the listed resources/experiences need to be consulted/achieved:

  * read chapters 1 & 2 in the Systems Programming book

=====Background=====
State the idea or purpose of the project. What are you attempting to pursue?

Upon approval, you'll want to fill this section out with more detailed background information. DO NOT JUST PROVIDE A LINK.

Providing any links to original source material, such as from a project page, is a good idea.

You'll want to give a general overview of what is going to be accomplished (for example, if your project is about installing a web server, do a little write-up on web servers. What is it, why do we need one, how does it work, etc.)

=====Scope=====
File access is an important concept to be familiar with. In addition to regular files, being able to deal with directories is especially important.

This project will implement our own version of **ls** which can be used to list files in directories on the system. It will do so by manipulating directory files and accessing their contents, and displaying the information in a readable form to STDOUT.

=====Attributes=====
State and justify the attributes you'd like to receive upon successful approval and completion of this project.

  * directories: directory files will be manipulated in this project

=====Code=====

<code c>
/*
 * hello.c - A sample "Hello, World!" program
 * 
 * written by NAME for COURSE on DATE
 *
 * compile with:
 *   gcc -o hello hello.c
 *
 * execute with:
 *   ./hello
 */

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
    printf("Hello, World!\n");    // Output message to STDOUT
    return(0);
}
</code>

=====Execution=====
Again, if there is associated code with the project, and you haven't already indicated how to run it, provide a sample run of your code:

<cli>
lab46:~/src/cprog$ ./hello

lab46:~/src/cprog$ 
</cli>
