Ok i have this code below when i enter option 3, once it goes through and that part is done, i cant get it to display the menu options again. It only works with "break ;;" but the break just exits...

edit i got it working thnks

after the user presses how would i "clear" the screen" so only the error messages are displayed?

trying to figure out where to put clear

its in a script, and i replaced all the ' with "

this is what im trying

function trap_ctrlC()
{
echo "Exited."
read -p "Press Enter to exit " exitS
exit 0
}

trap trap_ctrlC 2

nothing happens when i press control c? It justs exits out no message is displayed

In the above after pressing option 1, after everything is done in that part how would i get it to display all the options again so user can choose another option?

if [ $? -eq 0 ]
then
echo "One of the input in not an integer"
exit
fi

ok the user can only enter a number if a letter is entered it shouldnt be accepted

until [ "$cars" -ge 1 -a "$cars" -ne...
