How to Loopback?
This is in the beginning of the program:

Code:
clear
tput cup 1 20
echo "Welcome to UNIX I Final Assignment"
tput cup 4 3
echo -e "Who would you like to look up?  \c"
tput cup 6 5
echo "[E]vans, Rolland"
tput cup 8 5
echo "[J]ones, Mildred"
tput cup 10 5
echo "[S]mith, Julie"
tput cup 12 5
echo "[Z]ane,  Morris"
tput cup 14 5
echo "Press [Ctrl + c] in Your Keyboard to Quit"
tput cup 16 3
echo -e "Please Enter Your Choice : \c"
tput cup 17 3
echo "(It Is NOT Case Sensitive, Please Feel Free to Make Any Input)"
read option
case $option in

I also created the corresponding information for each input on the display so...

My question is...
How do I display the corresponding information for 5 second and then loop back to the main menu?

continue

continue(3tcl)						       Tcl Built-In Commands						    continue(3tcl)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME

       continue - Skip to the next iteration of a loop

SYNOPSIS

       continue
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       This  command  is  typically invoked inside the body of a looping command such as for or foreach or while.  It returns a TCL_CONTINUE code,
       which causes a continue exception to occur.  The exception causes the current script to be aborted out to  the  innermost  containing  loop
       command,  which	then  continues with the next iteration of the loop.  Catch exceptions are also handled in a few other situations, such as
       the catch command and the outermost scripts of procedure bodies.

EXAMPLE

       Print a line for each of the integers from 0 to 10 except 5:
	      for {set x 0} {$x<10} {incr x} {
		 if {$x == 5} {
		    continue
		 }
		 puts "x is $x"
	      }
