Add Pause Prompt In a Shell Script
Use "read". There is no pause command under bash shell.
#!/bin/bash echo $1 read -p "Press [Enter] key to continue."
The sample script above shows what is entered as a command line parameter and then pauses, waiting for the user to press the ENTER key to continue. This creates a PAUSE.
