Stay tuned. On most 4.2 systems, there's a tool called 'jot' which is what seq/loop is all about. Source lives in /usr/src/contrib/tools. These were written at the UCB Comp Center (*not* the people responsible for 4BSD - thinking that just makes both groups mad) and are considered to be in the public domain. I've been given permission by the author to give them away, most notably to the GNU project. If you want a copy, send me mail. If enough people ask, I'll post them to mod.sources. Probably get around to sending them to the GNU project at the same time.
