Author: Mike StarkeDate: Subject: user input from shell scripts
I am trying to convert a couple perl scripts to simple
shell scripts (nothing but a simple excercise for myself).
The basic format I have always used went something like this:
print "Enter Your Name: ";
$name = <STDIN>;
chomp $name;
Would the following be the proper way for bash?
echo "EnterYour Name: "
read -e NAME
echo $NAME
