I have been trying to replicate this with a case statement because I am not sure which way he wants this. He has an example of creating a menu in our powerpoint slides, so he might want us to do it that way, but I cannot figure out how to add the commands properly. Would it be something like:

Code:

# Use of a case statement to offer a 5 item menu
echo “  Menu\n1. Add an entry \n2. Display all matches to a string\n3. Sort and display the file\n4. Delete all entries that match a string\n5. Quit to Unix\nEnter your option #: \c”
read choice
case “$choice” in
	1) add;;
	2) list;;
	3) find;;
	4) delete;;
	5) exit ;;
	*)	echo “Invalid option”   # ;; not needed for last option
esac

I am not sure how to add the commands properly like I did with the original solution, where I included the sub scripts like ./add.sh. Any ideas?

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME

       tk_popup - Post a popup menu

SYNOPSIS

       tk_popup menu x y ?entry?
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       This procedure posts a menu at a given position on the screen and configures Tk so that the menu and its cascaded children can be traversed
       with the mouse or the keyboard.	Menu is the name of a menu widget and x and y are the root coordinates at which to display the	menu.	If
       entry  is omitted or an empty string, the menu's upper left corner is positioned at the given point.  Otherwise entry gives the index of an
       entry in menu and the menu will be positioned so that the entry is positioned over the given point.

EXAMPLE

       How to attach a simple popup menu to a widget.
	      # Create a menu
	      set m [menu .popupMenu]
	      $m add command -label "Example 1" -command bell
	      $m add command -label "Example 2" -command bell

	      # Create something to attach it to
	      pack [label .l -text "Click me!"]

	      # Arrange for the menu to pop up when the label is clicked
	      bind .l <1> {tk_popup .popupMenu %X %Y}
