在这种情况下，我已经多次使用case语句，使用case语句是一种很好的方法。可以实现while循环，该循环模拟case块，利用布尔条件，以便更好地控制程序，并满足许多其他要求。在满足所有条件后，可以使用中断，将控制权传递回程序的主要部分。此外，为了满足其他条件，当然可以在控制结构中添加条件语句：case语句和可能的while循环。

使用案例陈述来满足您的请求的示例

#! /bin/sh 

# For potential users of BSD, or other systems who do not
# have a bash binary located in /bin the script will be directed to
# a bourne-shell, e.g. /bin/sh

# NOTE: It would seem best for handling user entry errors or
# exceptions, to put the decision required by the input 
# of the prompt in a case statement (case control structure), 

echo Would you like us to perform the option: "(Y|N)"

read inPut

case $inPut in
    # echoing a command encapsulated by 
    # backticks (``) executes the command
    "Y") echo `Do something crazy`
    ;;
    # depending on the scenario, execute the other option
    # or leave as default
    "N") echo `execute another option`
    ;;
esac

exit

这是我整理的东西：

#!/bin/sh

promptyn () {
    while true; do
        read -p "$1 " yn
        case $yn in
            [Yy]* ) return 0;;
            [Nn]* ) return 1;;
            * ) echo "Please answer yes or no.";;
        esac
    done
}

if promptyn "is the sky blue?"; then
    echo "yes"
else
    echo "no"
fi

我是一个初学者，所以要谨慎对待，但它似乎奏效了。

针对其他人：

您不需要在BASH4中指定大小写，只需使用'，，'使var小写即可。此外，我强烈不喜欢将代码放在读取块内，获取结果并在读取块IMO外处理它。还包括一个“q”表示退出IMO。最后，为什么键入“yes”只需使用-n1并按y。

示例：用户可以按y/n和q退出。

ans=''
while true; do
    read -p "So is MikeQ the greatest or what (y/n/q) ?" -n1 ans
    case ${ans,,} in
        y|n|q) break;;
        *) echo "Answer y for yes / n for no  or q for quit.";;
    esac
done

echo -e "\nAnswer = $ans"

if [[ "${ans,,}" == "q" ]] ; then
        echo "OK Quitting, we will assume that he is"
        exit 0
fi

if [[ "${ans,,}" == "y" ]] ; then
        echo "MikeQ is the greatest!!"
else
        echo "No? MikeQ is not the greatest?"
fi

echo "Please enter some input: "
read input_variable
echo "You entered: $input_variable"

用最少的行数实现这一点的最简单方法如下：

read -p "<Your Friendly Message here> : y/n/cancel" CONDITION;

if [ "$CONDITION" == "y" ]; then
   # do something here!
fi

if只是一个例子：如何处理这个变量取决于您。

我为回答是/否问题编写了一个小脚本：https://github.com/optimistiCli/getans

例子：

#!/bin/bash

if ! getans.sh 'Shall we proceed?' y ; then
    echo "User said “NO”"
    exit 1
fi

echo "User said “YES”"
# do something usefull
exit 0
