Hi you,

This the code I have:

function show_menu {

echo " lalalalal"
echo " 1. ...."
echo " 2. ...."
echo " 3. exit"
read choice

case $choice in
1) ... ;;
2) ...;;
*) stop=1;;
esac

}

##main
while [ ! $stop ]; do
show_menu | tee -a event.log
done

before I added the tee command to generate a log file, this worked perfectly. But with tee, the loop will never end, because stop will never change to 1.
Could you explain me why?
How can I solve this?
Even when I add an 'exit 1' instead of stop=1 it won't work!

Thanks for any help.

Ben Sky
