Code:
#!/bin/sh
pdir=`pwd`
if [ $# -lt 1 ]; then
 echo current directory $pdir
 ls -altr
 echo
fi
for f in $*
do
    # directory
    if [ -d $f ]; then
      echo current directory $f
      cd $f
      ls -latr
      echo
    fi

    # but you can test file/dir
    # regular file only
    if [ -f $f ]; then
      pfile=`basename $f`
      echo current directory $pdir
      ls -altr $pfile
      echo
    fi

echo

echo(3XCURSES)						  X/Open Curses Library Functions					    echo(3XCURSES)

NAME

       echo, noecho - enable/disable terminal echo

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -I /usr/xpg4/include -L /usr/xpg4/lib 
       -R /usr/xpg4/lib -lcurses [ library... ]

       c89 [ flag... ] file... -lcurses [ library... ]

       #include <curses.h>

       int echo(void);

       int noecho(void);

DESCRIPTION

       The  echo()  function enables Echo mode for the current screen. The noecho() function disables Echo mode for the current screen. Initially,
       curses software echo mode is enabled and hardware echo mode of the tty driver is disabled. The echo() and noecho() functions control  soft-
       ware echo only. Hardware echo must remain disabled for the duration of the application, else the behavior is undefined.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, these functions return OK. Otherwise, they return ERR.

ERRORS

       No errors are defined.
