Setup Command for CMSC106 (Fall 2025)

There is command (e.g., setup_106) to configure your account so you can complete projects. This command will configure your account by:

1. Creating the correct alias for the submit command that you will use to submit assignments.
2. Create links to the directories where we place files you need and to the directory were you will develop your assignments.

If unfortunately you are repeating this course, you need to make sure you reset your Grace environment before you run the setup command. Please follow the instructions your previous instructor provided regarding resetting your Grace environment. Some resetting information is available at https://www.cs.umd.edu/~nelson/classes/resources/resetting_grace_env.html.

To run the setup command for CMSC106 fall 2025, copy and paste the following command at the linux prompt, log out, and log on again. For other semesters, contact your instructor for the appropriate information.

			/afs/glue.umd.edu/class/fall2025/cmsc/106/0101/public/bin/setup_106
        

The following changes would have taken place after executing the setup_106 command:

• 106 directory - This directory is located in your home directory. You need to complete your assignments and do any work related to the course in this directory.
• 106public directory - You will see in your home directory a directory called 106public. This is a directory we used to place material (e.g., project files, descriptions, etc.) you need for the course. Feel free to explore its contents. Note that you only have read permission for files available in 106public; if you want to edit any files, you need to copy our files to your 106 directory. For example, to copy class examples present in the directory Week01, you will execute the following command:

              		cp -r ~/106public/lecture_examples/Week01 ~/106
              	

You will execute the setup_106 command only once during the semester.
