Sure you can -- you'll just get the "for" starter. I sure appreciate
this -- I *love* composing many-line-long loops interactively, and the
ability to go back and snatch lines from out of a previous loop
construction makes it wonderful to do slightly different loops, or to
resubmit a loop with an internal typo corrected. The approach taken to
adding loops to history is one of my favorite bash features.
