Click to See Complete Forum and Search --> : Bash shell scripts command: read
I'm trying to make a script which would run several programs one after another. Now the commands are given in advance and are read by script with read command. The problem is that if there is a mistake, i can't use backspace/del to delete a character. Is there a switch/something that would enable this?

A little more information would be helpful. Is this an interactive script, showing you a prompt on-screen to which you must respond? Is this a problem editing the script? If so, which editor are you using?
I got it to work now, needed to add "stty erase ^?" in the script.
