As said already, please post an error message, if you get one, thanks. Script is working fine though the output is not very useful in my eyes.
As said already, have a look into basic shell scripting guides too, thanks. You can learn tons out of them.

xmaddtopostfromlist

XmAddToPostFromList(library call)										 XmAddToPostFromList(library call)

NAME

       XmAddToPostFromList -- a RowColumn function that makes a menu accessible from more than one widget

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/RowColumn.h>

       void XmAddToPostFromList(
       Widget menu,
       Widget post_from_widget);

DESCRIPTION

       XmAddToPostFromList makes a menu accessible from more than one widget. After a menu is once created, this function may be used to make that
       menu accessible from a second widget. The process may be repeated indefinitely. In other words, where an application would use XmCreatePop-
       upMenu  or  XmCreatePulldownMenu or their equivalent to create a new menu identical to one that already exists, it can use this function to
       reuse that earlier menu.

       If menu refers to a Popup menu, then the post_from_widget widget can now pop up the specified menu. The actual posting of the  menu  occurs
       as it always does, either through an event handler, or the automatic popup menu support (see the XmRowColumn(3) reference page).

       If  menu  refers  to  a	Pulldown menu, its ID is placed in the XmNsubMenuId resource of the specified post_from_widget.  In this case, the
       post_from_widget widget must be either a CascadeButton or a CascadeButtonGadget.

       Note that this function manipulates the internal structures themselves, not a copy of them.

       menu	 Specifies the ID of the RowColumn widget containing the menu (Popup or Pulldown) to be made accessible from the widget.

       post_from_widget
		 Specifies the widget ID of the widget which will now be able to post the menu specified by menu.

       For a complete definition of RowColumn and its associated resources, see XmRowColumn(3).
