This should take care of it:

Code:
for x in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
do
	### FILE TRANSFER CODE    ###
	### SHOULD BE PLACED HERE ###

	if [ -f $F_NAME1 ]	# TESTS TO SEE IF FILE 1 EXISTS
				# -s WOULD CHECK FOR EXISTANCE AND SIZE > 0
	then
		/usr/bin/diff $F_PATH/$F_NAME1 $F_PATH/$F_NAME2 >> /dev/null 2>&1

		if [ $? -eq 0 ] 
		then    # NO CHANGE
			rm $F_PATH/$F_NAME1
			break
		else	# CHANGE
			rm $F_PATH/$F_NAME2
			uuencode $F_PATH/$F_NAME1 $F_NAME1| mailx -s "$F_NAME1 CHANGED" $NC_EMAIL
			break
		fi
	else
		sleep $SLEEP_INT  # INTERVAL TO SLEEP IN SECONDS
	fi
done

change-po-charset

CHANGE-PO-CHARSET(1)					      General Commands Manual					      CHANGE-PO-CHARSET(1)

NAME

       change-po-charset - change the charset value in content-type header of a gettext po file

SYNOPSIS

       change-po-charset <charset> FILENAME1 [ FILENAME2 ...]

DESCRIPTION

       change-po-charset  is  a simple Perl script, which reads the specified file names, and prints them on standard output, making only the fol-
       lowing modification. In the first msgstr string sequence it encounters, it changes the "charset" attribute of the  Content-Type	header	to
       the charset specified as the first parameter.

       Please  note  that  it  does not actually change any character encoding of the contents of the data. It is used by potooledit(1) to fix the
       content-type header after it recodes the file with iconv(1).

SEE ALSO

       potooledit(1), iconv(1), msgmerge(1), msgfmt(1).

AUTHOR

       change-po-charset was written by Marcin Owsiany <porridge@debian.org>.
