Try echo $SHELL to find your shell. Or just ps. "which shell" looks for a command named shell, which isn't much help.
How about this, with -name to avoid the grep. This checks in the filename. -path would check in the file path instead.
The IFS avoids having read split on anything, and the -r prevents it from trying to evaluate backslashes. It's a good habit when you want read to give you literal, unchanged input...
One caveat: Variables you set inside the "while" won't be set outside the loop. The | puts the loop into a separate, independent subshell.
