Doing this in the shell has the advantage that it only requires about
3 lines using just 1 shell command (for, plus its do and done
keywords) and the emacs command (plus its 6 options and arguments).
That is a more efficient use of my time than writing 21 lines of
approximately 30 lisp function and macro calls.
