    Simple File Manager

    This example illustrates how to use UNIX file-related APIs for basic file
    operations.

    How to Compile and Run


    1. Save the code to a file, e.g., file_manager.c.
    2. Open a terminal and navigate to the directory containing the file.
    3. Compile the code:
    gcc -o file_manager file_manager.c

    4. Run the program:


    To create a file:
    ./file_manager create test.txt
    To list files in the current directory:
    ./file_manager list
    To delete a file:
    ./file_manager delete test.txt
    This program allows users to create a text file, append content to it, read its
    content, and delete it.
    This simple text file editor demonstrates how to use UNIX file-related APIs for
    file creation, reading, appending, and deletion.

    perror("Error creating file");
    return;
    }
    close(fd);
    printf("File '%s' created.\n", filename);
    }

    void append_to_file(const char *filename, const char *text) {


    int fd = open(filename, O_WRONLY | O_APPEND);
    if (fd == -1) {
    perror("Error opening file for appending");
    return;
    }
    write(fd, text, strlen(text));
    write(fd, "\n", 1); // Add newline
    close(fd);
    printf("Appended to '%s'.\n", filename);
    }

    void read_file(const char *filename) {


    char buffer[256];

    perror("Error opening file for reading");
    return;
    }

    printf("Contents of '%s':\n", filename);


    ssize_t bytes_read;
    while ((bytes_read = read(fd, buffer, sizeof(buffer) - 1)) > 0) {
    buffer[bytes_read] = '\0'; // Null-terminate the string
    printf("%s", buffer);
    }
    close(fd);

    perror("Error deleting file");
    return;
    }
    printf("File '%s' deleted.\n", filename);
    }

    int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {


    if (argc < 2) {
    fprintf(stderr, "Usage: %s <create|append|read|delete> [filename] [text]\n",
    argv[0]);
    return 1;
    }

    if (strcmp(argv[1], "create") == 0 && argc == 3) {


    create_file(argv[2]);
    } else if (strcmp(argv[1], "append") == 0 && argc == 4) {
    append_to_file(argv[2], argv[3]);
    } else if (strcmp(argv[1], "read") == 0 && argc == 3) {
    read_file(argv[2]);
    } else if (strcmp(argv[1], "delete") == 0 && argc == 3) {
    delete_file(argv[2]);
    } else {
    fprintf(stderr, "Invalid command or missing arguments.\n");
    }

    return 0;
    }
    How to Compile and Run
    1. Save the code to a file, e.g., text_editor.c.
    2. Open a terminal and navigate to the directory containing the file.
    3. Compile the code:
    gcc -o text_editor text_editor.c
    4. Run the program:
    To create a file:
    ./text_editor create myfile.txt
    To append text to the file:
    ./text_editor append myfile.txt "Hello, world!"
    To read the contents of the file:
    ./text_editor read myfile.txt
    To delete the file:
    ./text_editor delete myfile.txt
