# pipex

The purpose of this project is the discovery in detail UNIX mechanism - `pipe`.

### Discription of mandatory part
The program `pipex` should repeat the behaviour of the next shell command
```bash
$> < file1 cmd1 | cmd2 > file2
```
and looks like this:
```bash
$> ./pipex file1 cmd1 cmd2 file2
```
All errors like: wrong commands, permission to files and etc, need be handle.
### Discription of bonus part
Program need handle multiple pipes
```bash
$> < file1 cmd1 | cmd2 | cmd3 | ... | cmdn > file2

$> ./pipex file1 cmd1 cmd2 cmd3 ... cmdn file2
```
Support `<<` and `>>`, when instead of `file1` is`here_doc`.
```bash
$> cmd1 << LIMITER | cmd2 >> file2

$> ./pipex here_doc LIMITER cmd1 cmd2 file2
```
