I ran Arnold's example on debian woody and I hit just plain RET and it wouldn't
let me go.  Had to hit C-d.

select var in word1 word2 
do
       if [ "$REPLY" = "" ]
       then
               echo congratulations, Dan Jacobson is very curious how \
               you got here

       fi
       echo $var
done
