I have written a script that is to display content in a directory, take user input, and then write the path to a .txt file based on the user input. The code is to wait for user input before displaying the next image. I am currently using



read -rsn1



but it seems to be skipping over this part of the code. The script is in bash and being ran in the terminal. Any ideas what I may be doing incorrectly? Thanks! enter image description here
