You'd save alot more seconds by not calling the ASCII scripting
additions hundreds of thousands of times:
set alpha to "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
set lst to {}
repeat with i in alpha
repeat with j in alpha
repeat with k in alpha
repeat with l in alpha
set end of lst to "" & i & j & k & l
end repeat
end repeat
end repeat
end repeat
I suspect the original poster is looking for something more
dynamic, but I'm not entirely clear on what he's asking for.
