This feels like it should already be a feature in a terminal. But I didn't find anything that let me do this efficiently.

I had a rust library for converting list like 1-4,8-10 into vectors, but thought I'd expand it into a command line command as well, as it is really useful when I want to run batch commands in parallel using templates.

I wanted to share it since it might be a useful simple command for many people.
