	people,

	for reasons i don't understand completely, i wind up with
	*wav* files in my /tmp/kde-kline/* directory. plus othr misc junk
	files.

	why is this script not finding them?


wav=/tmp/kde-kline/\*wav\*

if [ -s $wav ]
then
        echo "Wav files found";
        ls -l $wav;

        /bin/rm ${wav};
else
        echo "No wav files in /tmp/kde-kline";
        exit 0;

fi

	do i have to cd to /tmp/kde-kline and examine every file in a
	loop?

	tia,

	gary
