you can try for extension check
Code:
#!/bin/sh
for i in `echo $*`
do
echo $i |awk -F. '{print $2}'|sort >>text
done
cat text|uniq -c |awk 'END{ {if(NR > 1)print "diff"
else print "same"}}'
rm -f text

if u want to check for the file name replace $2 with $1.
This script can me made shorter if we use array and count the var also..Smilie .. for better result.

NAME
igawk - gawk with include files SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ... igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ... DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1). AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like @include getopt.awk in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path. OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports. EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk @include getopt.awk BEGIN { while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1) ... } EOF igawk -f test.awk SEE ALSO
