Pick is a utility used to interactively select from a list of arguments.
Each argument is echoed and may be selected with a `y' response.  On
each choice, an escape can be made to execute a command.  A response
of `q' will exit pick.  The following could be used to mimic the behaviour
of "rm -i *":

	rm `pick *`
