What were you trying to do?

Turn in my 6.037 problem set.

What's wrong:

I accidently mistyped a filename on the command line.  All the files
AFTER that one were silently ignored.

What should have happened:

It should have given an error message saying that the missing file was
missing (surprise) and then continued to deal with the rest of the
files.
