The easiest way is probably to make a recording. Starting on 100th line,
press qq, then A (CHECKED), then 100j, then q. To run it, do something
like 999@q - it will be run 999 times or stop if it reaches end of file.
Check the last line, if it has (CHECKED), check if it's correct line
number. I think it should work fine even on the last line but just to be
sure, won't hurt to check...
