Inserting a range of consecutive numbers into a text file
I have a text file in the following format
....
START
1,1
2,1
3,1
..
..
9,1
10,1
END
....

I want to change to the output to
....
START
1,1
2,1
3,1
..
..
9,1
10,1
11,1
..
..
99,1
100,1
END
.....

With my little knowledge of sed I could come this far.
sed '/START/,/END/' provides a means of addressing the range. But how to add consecutive numbers from 11 to 99 before END???

Btw the file is filled with numbers before START and after END.

Thanks in advance
VNR
