A tool to quickly compile and run different source files using same command  

  

Universal allows you to __quickly__ compile, build and run files. Universal make it very easy to compile _any_ source code and create & execute corresponding files.  

  

## Usage



Let us say you want to compile _batman.c_.  

  

### Normal(SLOW) way



`gcc -g -O2 -std=gnu99 -static -Wall -Wextra -Isrc -rdynamic -fomit-frame-pointer -o batman.out batman.c -lm -lrt`  



That is around 114 keystrokes with these options that I use for ICPC practice. Now you need to type `./batman.out` to execute. 

  

How __Universal__ helps you in programming?  

You just need to type `u batman.c`  



Typing effort is reduces even more if you use tab for filename prediction i.e type `u` followed by space and then first word of file `b` and hit tab. Voila, hit enter.  

  

After pressing enter universal will do following things for you:  



  * It will compile your _batman.c_ (with a lot of awesome gcc commandline options & flags already set).  

  * After compiling it will create an executable named _batman.out_  

  * Give you instructions to copy-paste for editing or executing.

  * You may also use `u batman.out` to execute the executable just created.  

  

### Universal way



`u b`  



With universal installed you just need to type __3__ keystrokes to compile and execute any type of source code.  

  

Best part you don't need to remember anything, not even the name of compiler. Forget the command name & its syntax and all those stupid, long but helpful command line options which are different for each compiler.  



You can use the __same__ command/syntax `u filename.extension` to build & run __any__ source code. Yes _any_ type of source file. Universal will either run it or tell you how to install its compiler.  Universal supports a large variety of languages including c, c++, java, python and many more.  

  

  

## Installation:



To install type



```

pip3 install universal

```

  

After completing installation you can type command name `universal --help` or `universal -h` or the easiest and fastest version of command `u -h` and just hit enter to get usage instruction and help.  

  

  

List of command line options:  



  * `u --help`     or `u -h` - get help  

  * `u --update`   or `u -u` - update software to the latest developement version with many bug fixes

  * `u --download` or `u -d` - download latest source code in a .zip file

  * `u --problem`  or `u -p` - Report problems, bugs, issues etc.

  * `u .c t`        - Perform a memory test while running the executable

  

To get latest version of Universal type `u -u` or do `pip install --upgrade universal` 



It is recommended that you update the software after every few weeks.
