About

alpha-counter-cli is a command line utility using the alpha-counter library to provide an alphabetic counter as would be used for numbering appendices.

It provides the --kind option to create counters using upper and lower ASCII alphabets as well as any alphabet via the --alphabet option. Specify an alternate starting point via the --start option. Stop printing after 100 iterations, or define an alternate number via the --take option.
