How do I write a ksh script that will check if all ftp files are received?

I am trying to code a ksh script that will check to see if all 26 incoming ftp files have been received before proceeding to the next function, which is to rename each file.

Here is the pseudo-code of what I am trying to do:

<<STEP_1>>
IF all ALS files have been transmitted then
go to STEP_2
ELSE
Sleep for 30 minutes
Go back to STEP_1
END IF;
<<STEP_2>>
Enter the command “rename_load1_als.sh” - this shell script will rename all of the extract files accordingly.
IF all files do not have .TXT extension then
go back to STEP_2
END IF;
Go to the directory /export/home/ftb_comm/prod/stage.
<<STEP_3>>
Enter the command nohup ./load_stage1_als.sh YYYYMM & - this script will load all
of the FTB extract files into the staging tables.
EXIT shell script.

Can someone please tell me what to do, especially for STEP_1 above?
Attached is the script that renames the files, so you have an idea of what the incoming file names are.

mdbFontEncoding(5)						 The m17n Library						mdbFontEncoding(5)

NAME
mdbFontEncoding - Font Encoding DESCRIPTION
The m17n library loads information about the encoding of each font form the m17n database by the tags <font, encoding>. The data is loaded as a plist of this format. FONT-ENCODING ::= PER-FONT * PER-FONT ::= '(' FONT-SPEC ENCODING [ REPERTORY ] ')' FONT-SPEC ::= '(' [ FOUNDRY FAMILY [ WEIGHT [ STYLE [ STRETCH [ ADSTYLE ]]]]] REGISTRY ')' ENCODING ::= SYMBOL FONT-SPEC is to specify properties of a font. FOUNDRY to REGISTRY are symbols corresponding to Mfoundry to Mregistry property of a font. See m17nFont for the meaning of each property. For instance, this FONT-SPEC: (nil alice0 lao iso8859-1) should be applied to all fonts whose family name is 'alice0 lao', and registry is 'iso8859-1'. ENCODING is a symbol representing a charset. A font matching FONT-SPEC supports all characters of the charset, and a character code is mapped to the corresponding glyph code of the font by this charset. REPERTORY is a symbol representing a charset or 'nil'. Omitting it is the same as specifying ENCODING as REPERTORY. If it is not 'nil', the charset specifies the repertory of the font, i.e, which character it supports. Otherwise, whether a specific character is supported by the font or not is asked to each font driver. For so called Unicode fonts (registry is 'iso10646-1'), it is recommended to specify 'nil' as REPERTORY because such fonts usually supports only a subset of Unicode characters. COPYRIGHT
