adding "ifs"
Thanks, this works: ls -l $* | grep .java$ | sed "s/-/J/"

It produces this output:

Jrw-r--r-- 1 jprial cdgrp 15 Apr 02 12:29 new.java

That's one down, but I need to put this into a script with if statements, so
that I can grep for "empty", "commands", and other things using the file command.
I would like to check for at least one argument first, and then
a) check for file names ending in .java, .c, or .cpp
b) send the files NOT named as above to the file command
and then c) put the appropriate letter (i.e. C for c program files) in place of the dash.

SYNOPSIS

       build-classpath
	    build the Java classpath in a portable manner

       build-jar-repository
	    build a jar repository in a portable manner

       rebuild-jar-repository

DESCRIPTION

       The JPackage Project has two primary goals:

	- To provide a coherent set of Java software packages for Linux, satisfying all quality requirements of other applications.

	- To establish an efficient and robust policy for Java software packaging and installation.
	 We  focus  on	free and open source software whenever possible. For convenience, we also provide non-free packages without the restricted
	 source code.

       Our RPMs are generic in that they should work on any RPM based Linux distribution (Mandriva, Red Hat, SuSE, others). Other packaging format
	 suggestions are welcome too.
