Is there a Linux equivalent of Solaris '/bin/ckyorn' (which literally
means "check yes or no"). I use ckyorn in a Solaris shell script to pose
questions for my application's installation shell script. I'm not a
shell guru, so ckyorn has been very helpful with command line
interactions during installs. What's the best way to interact within a
Linux shell?
For example, my installer has to ask boolean and text input questions
like:
Do you accept the license agreement? [yes|no]
Enter the name of your location: [Boston, MA]
