Shell Select

select

select 表达式是一种bash的扩展应用，尤其擅长于交互式使用。用户可以从一组不同的值中进行选择。

select var in ... ; do

　break

done

.... now $var can be used ....

下面是一个例子：

#!/bin/sh

echo "What is your favourite OS?"

select var in "Linux" "Gnu Hurd" "Free BSD" "Other"; do

　　　　break

done

echo "You have selected $var"

　　下面是该脚本运行的结果：

What is your favourite OS?

1) Linux

2) Gnu Hurd

3) Free BSD

4) Other

#? 1

You have selected Linux
