In saving an example for myself, I thought I'd reproduce NUMBER FROM

NUMBER is a convenience; the same result can be obtained by
incrementing a counter.
How the heck do I set a nonzero initial value? I thought BREAK FIRST
would fit the bill, but that doesn't come before the first record unless
I delay the record by SELECT SECOND. I could put IF #0=0 up front, but
if the initial value is negative I'd need a second counter to keep track
so I don't reset it again when it hits zero.
