1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data:

Your shell script should continue to execute until the user selects option 4

2. Relevant commands, code, scripts, algorithms:


echo
read

3. The attempts at a solution (include all code and scripts):

REPEAT="!4"

while [ "$REPEAT" = "1, 2, 3" ]
do
echo "1. Display a long listing of the current directory"
echo "2. Display who is logged on the system"
echo "3. Display the current date and time"
echo "4. Quit"

if [$1]

ls -l

else
if [$2]

#command corresponding to choice given

else
if [$3]

#command coresponding to choice given

else
if [$4]

#command coresponding to choice given

done


is the while parameters while [ "$REPEAT" = "1, 2, 3" ] is that right or can i just put [ "$REPEAT" = "!4" ]? for a shorter version?
