[deprecated]

Just in case anyone was worried that emacs has only two solutions to
this problem, there is a third way ..... :)

Turn on CUA mode (M-x cua-mode)

Move to the end of the first line and type C-return (cua-set-rectangle-
mark).

Now move to the end of the last line and type M-n (cua-sequence-
rectangle). You will be prompted for a starting value, an increment
and a format string.
