I'm not sure what you want - it looks like you want the default case to open the browser - default is the choice of the user.
Question: the user enters the number 3. The case statement will execute the code block for 3.
So, the user's choice gets taken correctly, correct?

If the user enters 67- which is not in the list - then the default case statement will execute. Right?
So what is your your request for default? I do not understand. You could add echo 'none of these' as a choice.
When the user selects 'none', then the case *) statement executes and you get the extra choice:

Code:

*)  echo "La tua scuola non è presente in lista"
    echo "enter your own choice"
    read mychoice
    chromium-browser   "$my_choice"
   ;;
esac

Plus some of your characters render as a British pound sign on my screen: (pound)INTERNET WEBSITE(pound) so I'm not sure what that means in your code....

scanlogs

SCANLOGS(8)						      System Manager's Manual						       SCANLOGS(8)

NAME

       scanlogs - summarize INN log files.

SYNOPSIS

       scanlogs [ norotate ] [ nonn ]

DESCRIPTION

       Scanlogs  summarizes  the information recorded in the INN log files (see newslog(5)).  By default, it also rotates and cleans out the logs.
       It is normally invoked by the news.daily(8) script.

KEYWORDS

       The following keywords are accepted:

       norotate
	      Using this keyword disables the rotating and cleaning aspect of the log processing: the logs files are only scanned for  information
	      and no contents are altered.

       nonn   Normally the nn log file is scanned and rotated.	Using this keyword disables this function.

       If scanlogs is invoked more than once a day, the ``norotate'' keyword should be used to prevent premature log cleaning.
