A simple solution is to use a shell script to do the relevant 
processing. For example:

   #!/bin/sh
   tab=`echo "\t"`
   for ln in `cat testing`;  do
     getz "[$ln]>embl" | sed "s#\$#$tab$ln#"
   done

This produces your desired result, but is inefficent for large lists of 
ids since each id is processed using an individual getz call.

If your set of ids is the product of a query you could use an Icarus 
script to do the processing instead, and avoid some of the overhead 
involved in the getz calls.
