<p>range is a simple utility for shell scripts that emits a list of
integers starting with the first command line argument and ending with
the last integer command line argument. It is a subset of functionality
found in the Unix seq command.</p>
<p>If the first argument is greater than the last then it counts down
otherwise it counts up.</p>
