## About
This project is a part of the School 21 curriculum. The main goal of this project is to learn how to work with signals in Unix systems. The server is a program that receives messages and displays them. The client is a program that sends messages to the server.
## Getting Started
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.
### Prerequisites
What things you need to install the software and how to install them.
```text
gcc >= 7.5.0
make >= 4.1
```
```bash
sudo apt-get install make
sudo apt-get install gcc
```
### Installing
A step by step series of examples that tell you how to get a development env running.
Clone the repository.
```bash
git clone https://github.com/LudwigAndreas/minitalk.git
cd minitalk
```
Build the project using the makefile
```bash
make
```
Run the server program.
```bash
./server
```
Run the client program.
```bash
./client [server_pid]
```
## Running the tests
Explain how to run the automated tests for this system.
```bash
make test
```
## Usage
The server is a program that receives messages and displays them. The client is a program that sends messages to the server. The client program takes two arguments: the server process ID and the message to send.
```bash
./server
```
```bash
./client [server_pid]
```
After running the server and client programs, you can send messages from the client to the server. The server will display the received messages.
