Here's what I'm looking for. I want a script, one that will start with look aaa and go all the way to look zzz. One that will hit every possible combination between aaa and zzz. How do I do this without the pain of typing every combination?

#LOOP 26 {


  #VAR firstletter %char(96+%i)


  #LOOP 26 {


     #VAR secondletter %char(96+%i) 


     #LOOP 26 {


       look @firstletter@secondletter%char(96+%i)


     }


   }


}

it looks at all combinations of [a..z][a..z][a..z]

If you'd prefer to do it all with one loop, this should work:
#VAR alphabet {abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz}
#LOOP 0,17575 {look %copy(@alphabet,%eval((%i26)+1),1)%copy(@alphabet,%eval(((%i/26)26)+1),1)%copy(@alphabet,%eval(((%i/676)26)+1),1)}

I'm not going to test it though. I'm not willing to inflict 17.5K lines of spam on myself.
