@katnjiapus
echo "dear user, please remember this: $data "
std output

and then

read "dear user, please write down what i said earlier" $data

@katnjiapus hm, if I had to I'd probably encode it as base64 and store that in a variable or file (depending on the amount/size of the data)

@katnjiapus pipe it to a file - much easier
