    filename=`file $arg | sed 's/: .*$//'`
    type=`file $arg | sed 's/^.*: //' | sed 's/\///' | sed 's/\///' | sed 's/\///' | sed 's/\///'`
    if [ -d "$type" ]
    then
        echo -n .
        mv "$filename" "$type"
    else
        mkdir "$type"
        echo -n .
        mv "$filename" "$type"
    fi
done
