我注意到，对于这样简单的用户输入，没有人发布显示多行回声菜单的答案，所以我的做法如下：

#!/bin/bash

function ask_user() {    

echo -e "
#~~~~~~~~~~~~#
| 1.) Yes    |
| 2.) No     |
| 3.) Quit   |
#~~~~~~~~~~~~#\n"

read -e -p "Select 1: " choice

if [ "$choice" == "1" ]; then

    do_something

elif [ "$choice" == "2" ]; then

    do_something_else

elif [ "$choice" == "3" ]; then

    clear && exit 0

else

    echo "Please select 1, 2, or 3." && sleep 3
    clear && ask_user

fi
}

ask_user

发布这种方法是希望有人发现它有用且省时。

检查此项

read -p "Continue? (y/n): " confirm && [[ $confirm == [yY] || $confirm == [yY][eE][sS] ]] || exit 1

在我的情况下，我需要从下载的脚本中读取。，

curl -Ss https://example.com/installer.sh | sh

在这种情况下，read-ryn＜/dev/tty行允许它读取输入。

printf "These files will be uploaded. Is this ok? (y/N) "
read -r yn </dev/tty

if [ "$yn" = "y" ]; then
   
   # Yes
else
   
   # No
fi

一种简单的方法是使用xargs-p或gnu-parallel-interactive。

我更喜欢xargs的行为，因为它像其他交互式unix命令一样，在提示符后立即执行每个命令，而不是收集yes以在最后运行。（在完成所需任务后，可以按Ctrl-C键。）

例如。，

echo *.xml | xargs -p -n 1 -J {} mv {} backup/

您可以在读取时使用默认REPLY，将其转换为小写，并使用表达式与一组变量进行比较。该脚本还支持ja/si/oui

read -rp "Do you want a demo? [y/n/c] "

[[ ${REPLY,,} =~ ^(c|cancel)$ ]] && { echo "Selected Cancel"; exit 1; }

if [[ ${REPLY,,} =~ ^(y|yes|j|ja|s|si|o|oui)$ ]]; then
   echo "Positive"
fi
