   Yeah, the reason it would fail, is the shell will expand it. IE: If you have 2   
   TIC's "a.tic", "b.tic", the command expands to:   
      
   : if [ -f fido/inbound/a.tic fido/inbound/b.tic ]; then   
      
   Which is a syntax error. There are probably many ways to do this, the way I   
   would do it is:   
      
   MOVED=0   
   for i in fido/inbound/*.tic; do   
     # If there are no files $i will equal "fido/inbound/*.tic"   
     if [ "$i" == "fido/inbound/*.tic" ]; then continue; fi   
      
     mv $i $destination;   
     MOVED=1   
   done   
      
   if [ ${MOVED} -eq 1 ]; then   
   ...   
   fi

   In my above example, you could have   
      
   for i in fido/inbound/*.tic fido/inbound/*.TIC; do   
      
   And then have another test for the uppercase *.TIC, that "continues".
