[net.general] Merry Christmas in Bourne Shell

ignatz@ihuxx.UUCP (11/13/83)

At first I laughed at this...then got annoyed at the waste of net
resources...then I read the programs.  Really...I should have saved
all of them as a comparative demonstration of how hard/easy it is to do
some things in different languages!  Anyway, here's another way to do it
on a Unix system:

COUNT=0
while test $COUNT -lt 15
do
	echo "Merry Christmas."
	COUNT=`expr $COUNT + 1`
done

			Ta!
