Create multiple empty files using tcsh terminal


I would like to create multiple empty files using tcsh, similar to the command:

touch {0..999}.txt

no bash installed.

%echo $SHELL

%/bin/tcsh

If possible, not using script but a terminal command


Solution

  • I've just created a simple script that does it:

    file name: script

    \#!/bin/tcsh
    
    set j = 1
    while ($j <= 10000)
         touch $j.txt
         @ j++ 
    end
    

    changed the permissions for the script to +x :

    chmod +x script
    

    and executed :

    ./script
