 # 42sh - A POSIX shell with a bad name
 
-42sh is a project aiming to implement a POSIX-compliant shell written in C with only the standard library.
-Source de is fully documented with the doxygen format so you can easily understand how the project works by exploring it.

-### Implemented features
-
-* **Command Execution:** `$PATH` search and binary execution (via `fork` and `execvp`) with error return code handling.
-* **Built-ins:** Native implementation of `echo`, `cd`, `exit`, `export`, `unset`, `set`, `.`, `true`, `false`, as well as loop management with `break` and `continue`.
-* **Control Structures:** * Conditions: `if / then / elif / else / fi`.
-    * Loops: `while`, `until` and `for`.
-* **Logical Operators:** Command chaining with `&&`, `||` and negation with `!`.
-* **Pipelines and Redirections:** * Full management of pipes `|` to connect the output of one process to the input of another.
-    * Single and multiple redirections: `>`, `<`, `>>`, `>&`, `<&`, `<>`.
-* **Variables Management:** Assignment, variable expansion, and special variables handling like `$?` (return code of the last command).
-* **Command Grouping:** Execution blocks `{ ... }` and subshells creation `( ... )`.
-* **Quoting:** Support for weak (`"`) and strong (`'`) quoting for special characters escaping.
-
-## Architecture
-
-The shell operates on a classic compilation/interpretation pipeline:
-
-1. **Lexer (Lexical Analysis):** Reads standard input (or script) character by character and generates a stream of "Tokens" (Words, Operators, Redirections).
-2. **Parser (Syntax Analysis):** Syntax analyzer that transforms the token stream into a complex Abstract Syntax Tree (AST). This module strictly manages the nesting of control structures and enforces the rigid grammar of the Shell Command Language.
-3. **Execution (AST Traversal):** The tree is traversed recursively. Redirections modify file descriptors (`dup2`), child processes are created (`fork`), and commands are executed.
