I still have questions, namely what "same type" means for brace expansion:
$ echo {z..0}
{z..0}
$ echo {z..A}
z y x w v u t s r q p o n m l k j i h g f e d c b a ` _ ^ ] [ Z Y X W V U T S R
Q P O N M L K J I H G F E D C B A
In between ] and [ there should be \ but apparently it gets eaten silently in
parsing? I thought I'd check to see if the slash showed back up if given
something to consume, but:
$ echo {z..A}x
bash: bad substitution: no closing "`" in `x
Really?
