I need to create a script in bash as follows:

List junk subdirectory in multi-column format
Echo/Read : Ask for filename
Test for existence of junk/filename
True: Test for file size:
Size=0: Display "filename exists, but size is zero"
Size>0: Display a full listing for filename
False: Echo/Read: "Should filename be created (y/n) ? \c"
Test (y/n): y, vi filename

Any help is welcome and appreciated.
