for i in ls question
Greetings,

I have a script that uses this syntax:

for i in `ls *.pll`
do
echo Compiling Lib $i .....
frmcmp.sh userid=$LOGON module_type=LIBRARY module=$i compile_all=yes batch=yes
done
mv *.pll ../libs
mv *.plx ../libs
mv *.err ../libs

If there are no files that match though I get a couple of errors like:
ls: *.pll: No such file or directory
mv: cannot stat `*.pll': No such file or directory

Although it is not a big deal I'd like to fix the script to be more informative so say 'skipping compile as no matching files found' or something.
So do I just add an else clause or something to fix this?

TIA.

netatalk-config(1)					       The Netatalk Project						netatalk-config(1)

NAME

       netatalk-config - script to get information about the installed version of netatalk

SYNOPSIS

       netatalk-config [--prefix[=DIR]] [--exec_prefix[=DIR]] [--help] [--version] [--libs] [--libs-dirs] [--libs-names] [--cflags] [--macros]

DESCRIPTION

       netatalk-config is a tool that is used to configure to determine the compiler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link pro-
       grams that use the netatalk run-time libraries.

OPTIONS

       netatalk-config accepts the following options:

       --help  Print a short help for this command and exit.

       --version
	       Print the currently installed version of netatalk on the standard output.

       --libs  Print the linker flags that are necessary to link against the netatalk run-time libraries.

       --libs-dirs
	       Print only the -l/-R part of --libs.

       --libs-names
	       Print only the -l part of --libs.

       --cflags
	       Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a program linked against the netatalk run-time libraries.

       --macros
	       Print the netatalk m4 directory.

       --prefix=PREFIX
	       If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that netatalk was built with when computing the output for the --cflags
	       and  --libs options. This option is also used for the exec prefix if --exec-prefix was not specified. This option must be specified
	       before any --libs or --cflags options.

       --exec_prefix=PREFIX
	       If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation exec prefix that netatalk was built with when computing  the  output  for  the
	       --cflags and --libs options.  This option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options.
