Hi all,
I'm new to shell scripting and would appreciate advice on how to
accomplish something.
I want to create a script that types out a question like it's being type
realtime by the computer. As in, when a string is echoed I would like
to make it appear with a small delay between each character being
displayed. Of course I could make a loop function and echo each letter
of a string without a character return, but I was wondering if anybody
knew how to do this more simply.
Hmmm, I wonder if that makes any sense... :-)
Thanks,
