Multiple for loops within a Menu?
I have program that I want to be able to use I guess you would call them functions.... to run muliple little programs or loops with one menu script. How would I do this. Here is some code I am using. Sorry about the formatting....it doesn't paste well.
Code:
echo    "***************************** Starting Patrol Menu  ***************************************"
echo    "                                                                                           "
banner  "Patrol TOOLS"

while true
do
   echo "                                                                                           "
   echo " Choose Option Number & Press Enter to Execute                                             " 
   echo "                                                                                           "
   echo "1.  Check Patrol Agent Status            6.  Display Operator Event Listener Log           "
   echo "2.  Display Active Patrol processes      7.  Display Operator Event Monitor Log            "
   echo "3.  Shutdown Patrol Agent                8.  View Patrol All MQEvents Log                  "          
   echo "4.  Start Patrol Agent                   9.  Suspend Channel Monitoring                    "
   echo "5.  Suspend Channel Monitoring          10.  Re-Activate Channel Monitoring                "
   echo "-->\c"
   read
   case $REPLY in
        1 )    ps -ef | grep PatrolAgent;; 
        2 )    ps -ef | grep patrol | page ;;
        3 )    /mqadmin/patrol/util/pmq_agent_listener_shutdown.ksh;;
        4 )    /patrol/StartPatrol.ksh;;
        5 )    mv echo "This option not currently Available" ;;
        6 )    page /patrol/evntlsr.log ;;;;
        7 )    page /patrol/evmon.log ;;
        9 )    echo Not available;;
        10 )  echo Not availablel;; 

         8 )   break ;;
   esac
done

LEARN ABOUT NETBSD

menu_post

MENU_POST(3)						   BSD Library Functions Manual 					      MENU_POST(3)

NAME

     post_menu, unpost_menu -- post (draw) or unpost a menu

LIBRARY

     Curses Menu Library (libmenu, -lmenu)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <menu.h>

     int
     post_menu(MENU *menu);

     int
     unpost_menu(MENU *menu);

DESCRIPTION

     The post_menu() function causes the menu to be drawn on the screen.  Any functions defined by either set_menu_init() or set_item_init() (see
     menu_hook(3)) are called before the menu is placed on the screen.	The unpost_menu() does the opposite, it removes a menu from the screen.
     Any functions defined by both set_menu_term() and set_item_term() (see menu_hook(3)) are called prior to the menu's removal.

RETURN VALUES

     The functions return one of the following error values:

     E_OK	      The function was successful.
     E_SYSTEM_ERROR   There was a system error during the call.
     E_BAD_ARGUMENT   One or more of the arguments passed to the function was incorrect.
     E_POSTED	      The menu is already posted.
     E_BAD_STATE      The function was called from within an initialization or termination routine.
     E_NO_ROOM	      The menu does not fit within the subwindow.
     E_NOT_CONNECTED  The item is not connected to a menu.

SEE ALSO

     curses(3), menu_hook(3), menus(3)

NOTES

     The header <menu.h> automatically includes both <curses.h> and <eti.h>.
