I tested the following script by having the $REPLY variable report its
value after the select statement and the value I entered was correct.
The problem I'm having is with the case statement I used. For some reason
the case statement isn't playing any of the stations and I have mpv on my
machine.
Have we got any case statement experts who wouldn't mind examining this
script and sending me a few pointers?
I have many other scripts with radio stations in them and if I can get
this technique working I'll be able to roll those into a single script
correctly:
Cut here.
