CSCI 161: How to Submit
See the "Submit your File" section of "Lab_1a" for background on the "submit" system.
  1. Type cd ~/161/ProjectName, replacing ProjectName with the name of the project you created in Eclipse (note the tilde (~) before the first forward slash). Avoid using spaces in project names (prefer underscores). If you mistakenly used a space, you must type cd "~/161/ProjectName". Spaces in file names can cause various complications and problems.
  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. Enter submit.
  4. Enter, for example, liffick161 (please choose the correct professor!).
  5. The file names that will be submitted are displayed (e.g., myinfo.txt and Hello.java). Verify that they are correct. If they are correct, enter y.
  6. Note the message that indicates which files have been submitted.
  7. You can type submitlog at any time, in any directory, to view your submit history.
