//--------------------------------------------------------------------
void main( int argc, char *argv[] ) {
  //--- variables ---
  int n, i, name;
  char sentence[100];
  char stars[100];

  //--- see if use entered arguments on the command line ---
  if ( argc < 2 ) {
    //--- No, didn't.  Print syntax information and quit ---
    printf( "Syntax: %s string [string...]\n", argv[0] );
    exit( 1 );
  }

  //--- print the arguments back to the user, with a dash in between ---
  for ( i = 1; i < argc; i++ ) {
    if ( i > 1 )
      printf( "-" );
    printf( "%s",  argv[i] );
