Despite nezabudka's and MadeInGermany's comments being correct they don't explain the error message. It comes from the shell interpreting the < as the redirection operator for stdin, and it doesn't find the file named the $error_limit's value. Escaping it would have helped circumvent that error, but had immediately stumbled over the next one: <= is not an accepted operator (in bashat least - you didn't mention the shell you use), use ! ... \> in lieu. Be aware that either of these compare values lexicographically using the current locale, so 145 would be considered less than 87, for instance. That's where nezabudka's proposals to use integer / numerical operators (like -le) come into play.

xtmenupopup
XtMenuPopup() XtMenuPopup()
Name
XtMenuPopup - built-in action for popping up a widget.
Synopsis (Translation Table)
<Event sequence>: XtMenuPopup(shell_name)
Inputs
shell_name
Specifies the name of the widget shell to pop up.
Availability
This action is named MenuPopup prior to Release 4.
Description
XtMenuPopdown is a predefined action procedure which does not have a corresponding public C routine. It can only be invoked from a trans-
lation table.
XtMenuPopup tries to find the named shell by searching the widget tree starting at the widget in which it is invoked. If it finds a shell
with the specified name in the popup children of that widget, it pops up the shell with the appropriate parameters. Otherwise, it moves up
the parent chain to find a popup child with the specified name. If XtMenuPopup gets to the application top-level shell widget and has not
found a matching shell, it generates a warning and returns immediately.
If XtMenuPopup is invoked on ButtonPress, it calls XtPopupSpringLoaded() on the specified shell widget. If XtMenuPopup is invoked on Key-
Press or EnterWindow, it calls XtPopup() on the specified shell widget with grab_kind set to XtGrabNonexclusive. Otherwise, the transla-
tion manager generates a warning message and ignores the action.
XtMenuPopup is specially registered with the translation manager as an action that will invoke a grab. This registration is done by call-
ing XtRegisterGrabAction() specifying owner_events True, event_mask ButtonPressMask ButtonReleaseMask, and pointer_mode and keyboard_mode
GrabModeAsync.
Usage
Note that XtMenuPopup is an action procedure; you cannot call it from C code.
MenuPopup is a synonym for XtMenuPopup.
Popup shells can also be popped up explicitly using XtPopup(), XtPopupSpringLoaded() or one of the predefined popup callback procedures
(see XtCallbackExclusive()).
The action XtMenuPopdown can be used to pop down a shell widget from a translation table.
