hi,

Iam not much familiar with shell programming
please help me to solve this:

I want to write a shell program that takes one or any number of
file directory names as input; sorts the directory listings of all the
directories given as parameters jointly in the ascending or
descending order of choice.

$ disps  abc  etc  desc
should sort the files contained in abc and etc directories in descending
order;

Also, in case it is found that one of the given name is not a directory then
an
error message should be displayed

Bye
<Mj>
