/*
* SEQ -- Command Sequence Processor
*
* This takes a shell command with special pattern codes embedded in it
* and issues a sequence of shell commands generated by filling in the
* patterns. This allows for one-line processing of a sequence of files
* such as LightWave image sequences.
*
* Some examples:
*
* CLI> seq copy abc#30# abc#.bku
* copy abc001 abc001.bku
* copy abc002 abc002.bku
* ...
* copy abc030 abc030.bku
*
* CLI> seq rename img#1,20,2# ximg#3,10#
* rename img001 ximg003
* rename img003 ximg004
* rename img005 ximg005
* ...
* rename img017 ximg011
* rename img019 ximg012
*
* It takes the command line and breaks it up into words. Each word
* can contain a sequence pattern which will be expanded into a sequence
* of words with numbers replacing the pattern code. The codes can be
* in the following forms:
*
* pattern form start end step
* ------------ ----- --- ----
* # 1 1 1
* #N# 1 N 1
* #K,N# K N 1
* #K,N,S# K N S
*
* Any word without a pattern is just a constant which gets repeated
* in each iteration. The total number of iterations for the combined
* command is the MAXIMUM number of elements in any sequence.
*
* If the command line is preceded by a hyphen (i.e. "seq -copy ..."),
* the commands will be generated and displayed but not envoked as
* shell commands. This allows you to test a complex pattern before
* letting it work on real files.
*
* This should be placed in the "S:" directory and have its script bit
* set to work as indicated in the above examples.
*
* 7/93 Stuart Ferguson
