Generate multiple lines at once

Would be nice to do something like

npx faker -n 100 email > emails.txt
cat emails.txt | sort

You can achieve this by other shell commands.

Workaround (as a one liner):

for i in {1..100}; do faker email | sed 's/$/\n/' >> emails.txt; done

Explanation

• for i in {1..100}; do ...; done - loops for 100 iterations
• faker email | - creates a random email using faker and pipes the output to the next command
• sed 's/$/\n/' - append a new line character to the output, to separate the emails by line
• >> emails.txt - append the final result to the file "emails.txt"
