Next time use code tags instead of a screenshot - it's easier to read and to test then

You have used single quotes (') instead of back quotes (`) in your code where you are reading from your temp file. The effect of this is that instead of setting $choix to contain the results from the dialog box, it instead contains the string "cat $temp"

NAME

       gnome-screenshot, gnome-panel-screenshot - GNOME screenshot utility

SYNOPSIS

       gnome-screenshot  | gnome-panel-screenshot [--border-effect=effect] [--delay=int] [--include-border] [--interactive] [--window] [gnome-std-

DESCRIPTION

       gnome-screenshot allows users to capture the screen image of a window or the complete  screen.	gnome-panel-screenshot	is  a  symlink	to
       gnome-screenshot.

       If  the	--window  option is used, you must move the mouse pointer to the window to be captured. The --delay option is always used with the
       --window option, to allow sufficient delay to set up the required screenshot. Once you have captured the window region, you  are  presented
       with a dialog showing a preview of the snapshot and the choice to save the image.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       --border-effect=effect  Effect to add to the border.

       --delay=int	       Pause for int seconds before capturing the window or screen

       --include-border        Include the window border with the screenshot.

       --interactive	       Interactively set options.

       --window 	       Capture a screenshot of the window in which the mouse pointer is located.

       gnome-std-options       Standard options available for use with most GNOME applications.  See gnome-std-options(5) for more information.
