Installing a Submit Script

The CS department submit server is a website created by CDR (ret) Jeff Kenney at USNA. We will use it to handle submissions of your programming projects, and to run auto-tests so that you can see how well your code is working.
  1. Open a terminal and execute the following command to create a directory ~/bin/submit: 
    mkdir -p ~/bin/submit
  2. Bring up a web browser and do the following:
    1. The URL for the submit system is https://submit.cs.usna.edu. Log in to the submit system.
    2. In the submit server page, choose the menu, "Retrieve Personalized Scripts" under your name. There is a big button saying "DOWNLOAD PERSONALIZED SUBMISSION SCRIPT". Click it.
    3. Then, your submission script will be downloaded (probably into Downloads directory). Move the downloaded submit file to the ~/bin/submit directory.
  3. Open a terminal and execute the following commands: 
    chmod 700 ~/bin/submit
    The commands will change the permission of the file to become executable.
