Well, you could do something like
limit=256
for hundreds in 0 1 2
do for tens in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
do for units in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
do number=${hundreds}${tens}${units}
if [ $number -lt $limit ] ; then
echo $number
fi
done
done
done
which I've actually done before, to my shame (in that I'm sure there must
be a better way, even with sh, but I had a problem to solve).
