This sounds like a very useful macro to have.  Some suggestions:

1. I would prefer the argument to be called "COUNTER" instead of "SEED"
as the latter is more commonly associated with random number
generators.  This would make the documentation clearer potentially.

2. I wonder if a second argument could be optionally available to allow
the counter to start at an arbitrary number and/or be reset?

I would definitely be using the macro for, as an example, in preparing
exams and courseworks where I often have to manually put the numbers in.

thanks,
eric
