How to Submit Using Your Linux Account

These instructions assume you are logged in on one of the Linux Lab machines.

  1. Use cd to switch to the directory in which you saved your files for the current assignment. Avoid using spaces in file and directory names.

  2. Type ls -l (i.e., "el ess space minus el") to view a long listing of the directory contents. Verify that the files you wish to submit are listed, have a non-zero size, and the appropriate date. To ensure a file contains what you think it does, type cat FileName, replacing "FileName" with the name of the file you wish to view.

  3. Type submit.

  4. Type the name of the correct grader account (e.g., zoppetti362).

  5. The file names that will be submitted are displayed (e.g., Analysis.txt and Program1.cc). Verify that they are correct. If they are correct, enter y.

  6. Note the message that indicates which files have been submitted.

You can type submitlog at any time, in any directory, to view your submit history.
