manifest: document return type of readfast()

# A portable replacement for 'seq'

# Usage:
# seq STOP [1, STOP] stepping by 1

# seq START STEP STOP [START, STOP] stepping by STEP
import sys
start = 1
if len(sys.argv) > 2:
start = int(sys.argv[1])
step = 1
if len(sys.argv) > 3:
step = int(sys.argv[2])
stop = int(sys.argv[-1]) + 1
for i in xrange(start, stop, step):
print i
