For loop with an argument based range

Question

I want to run certain actions on a group of lexicographically named files (01-09 before 10). I have to use a rather old version of FreeBSD (7.3), so I can\'t use yummies like

Answer 1

Ok, I finally got it!

#!/bin/bash
#BSD-only iteration method    
#for day in `jot $1 $2`
for ((day=$1; day<$2; day++))
do
    echo $(printf %02d $day)
done

I initially wanted to use the cycle iterator as a "day" in file names, but now I see that in my exact case it's easier to iterate through normal numbers (1,2,3 etc.) and process them into lexicographical ones inside the loop. While using jot, remember that $1 is the numbers amount, and the $2 is the starting point.
