Thanks for the answer.

I want to use a function for all my *.c files in my directory and sub directories.
for example :
i have function named ./script
i want to check : 'ls'
if first file = *.c use ./script name.c
if directory = check if there is *.c files inside the directory.
if not directory and not *.c do nothing.

You helped me alot with your answer.
how can i check if ${Array[1]} == directory ?

Thanks again.

NAME
mvdir - move a directory SYNOPSIS
dir newdir DESCRIPTION
moves one directory tree into another existing directory (within the same file system), or renames a directory without moving it. dir must be an existing directory. If newdir does not exist but the directory that would contain it does, dir is moved and/or renamed to newdir. Otherwise, newdir must be an existing directory not already containing an entry with the same name as the last pathname component of dir. In this case, dir is moved and becomes a subdirectory of newdir. The last pathname component of dir is used as the name for the moved directory. refuses to move dir if the path specified by newdir would be a descendent directory of the path specified by dir. Such cases are not allowed because cyclic sub-trees would be created as in the case, for example, of which is prohibited. does not allow directory to be moved. Only users who have appropriate privileges can use EXTERNAL INFLUENCES
