Afaik the person who wrote winmx is now publishing fopnu and darkmx. So it’s still around, just in a modern iteration.

Wild, I get syntax error: unexpected end of file when I run your code, so just that alone is very confusing.

When you’re inside foo here, STDIN is the pipe. Once I fix this syntax error that you somehow dodge and add some extra debugging, you can get a better picture of what’s going on here:

foo() {
        read -r -p "delete $name (default is no) [y/n]?  " choice
        choice="${choice:-n}"
        echo "\$choice: $choice"
}

printf "%s\n" "foo" "bar" "baz" "eggs" "spam" | while read -r name; do
        printf "Got name '%s'\n" "$name"
        echo calling foo
        foo
done

Got name 'foo'
calling foo
$choice: bar
Got name 'baz'
calling foo
$choice: eggs
Got name 'spam'
calling foo
$choice: n

I skip the gym on days where I stand and play one for an hour or more.

Almost threw my dean across the room the first time I picked it up after playing a Les Paul.
