What are you looking to accomplish with this script?

The below is PART of a larger script that I use to ask the current logged in user for their password so I can enable their Filevault 2 account. It runs from Self Service and opens an Applescript dialog.

## Get the logged in user's password via a prompt

echo "Prompting ${userName} for their login password."

userPass="$(/usr/bin/osascript -e 'Tell application "System Events" to display dialog "Credentials" default answer "" with title "Login Password" with text buttons {"Ok"} default button 1 with hidden answer' -e 'text returned of result')"



echo "Issuing new recovery key"



if [[ $OS -ge 9  ]]; then

    ## This "expect" block will populate answers for the fdesetup prompts that normally occur while hiding them from output

    expect -c "

    log_user 0

    spawn fdesetup add -usertoadd $(userName)

    expect "Enter a password for '/':"

    send ""

    expect "Enter the password for the added user '"${userName}"':"

    send "${userPass}"

    log_user 1

    expect eof

    "

else

    echo "OS version not 10.9+ or OS version unrecognized"

    echo "$(/usr/bin/sw_vers -productVersion)"

    exit 5

fi

How do you make the script visible so they can see the echo and respond? Can they only respond to the AppleScript?

Here's an example:

!/bin/bash

echo -n "What is your name? " && read theName
echo "Hello, $theName."

Thanks for the tip on applescript. I ended up using the applescript format that @Look mentioned in this article:
