Using cs75handin to submit homework assignments

1. Create a tarfile
   cd to the directory containing your homework files and create a tar file containing everything specified in the homework assignment. For example, for the first project you would include:
   1. all your C source and header files
   2. your Makefile
   3. a README file containing:
      1. the name of you and your partner
      2. any information we need to compile your program (other than typing "make")
      3. any information we need to run your program (for example, a description of any command line arguments and an example command line)
   4. any other files that I explicitly ask that you turn in as part of your assignment

2. Run cs75handin

       % cs75handin
   

   you should see a menu that looks like the following:

         Hi, your_username!
         This program allows you to turn in your solution to
         Project 1 -- due by midnight Sunday, September 12
   
         Enter 'h' to hand in a homework file
         Enter 'v' to view the files you have turned in
         Enter 'q' to quit
   
         handin>
   

3. Submit the tarfile
   To submit your homework assignment, type h. You will then be prompted to enter the name of the tar file you are handing in.

   To verify that cs75handin has your tar file, type v.

   You can re-submit solution to homework assignments any time before the due date (just re-run cs75handin, and re-submit your tar file)
