minitalk is a UNIX inter-process communication project using signals.
The goal is to create a server and a client that communicate using only SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2.
The client sends a string to the server by encoding each character in binary. The server reconstructs the message bit by bit and displays it.
This project introduces signal handling, process communication, and bitwise operations.
makeThis generates two executables:
serverclient
- Start the server:
./serverIt will display its PID.
- Run the client with the server PID and a message:
./client <server_pid> "Your message"The message will be displayed on the server side.
