| I would like a script but cant get it going:
1. ask to start, list files in /tmp that match foo.$DATE
2. Choose file associated with # (# of files found)
3. are you sure ? ( chance to back out )
4. issue command based on this file choice. ( remove , mailx contents or
scp)
is it easier to use function, case, menus ? or just a line command ?

Yes and no, or some of, or all of, the above.
Please don't multi-post. If you feel a question belongs in more
than one newsgroup, please cross-post (put a comma-separated list
on the "Newsgroups: " line.
