    This C++ program implements a basic shell that can run commands and handle interrupt and background signals. The program registers signal handlers for SIGINT and SIGTSTP, uses fork() to run commands in a child process, and waitpid() to wait for the child process to complete. It prints messages for interrupt and background signals and exits when the "exit" command is entered.
