I found this could be useful so I have implemented this in my own firewall
script to get the functionality like this :

fwcmd_add deny ip from 10.0.0.0/8 to any
fwcmd_add skipto ${rule_skip_1} ip from 192.168.1.0/24 to any
fwcmd_add deny ip from 192.168.0.0/16 to any
fwcmd_add count ip from any to any

When run this gives :

add 500 deny ip from 10.0.0.0/8 to any
add 510 skipto 530 ip from 192.168.1.0/24 to any
add 520 deny ip from 192.168.0.0/16 to any
add 530 count ip from any to any

It is not perfect but it works...=20

The implemetation is not complete yet but you can get the idea :

is_num() {
    expr "$*" + 1 >/dev/null 2>&1
    return $?
}

rule_first=3D500
rule_inc=3D10 # How much to inc pr rule
rule_next=3D${rule_first} # The next rule to use
# Add a firewall rule
fwcmd_add() {
    # Check if we have a rule number
    if is_num "$1"; then
        rule_next=3D$1
        shift
    fi

    ${fwcmd} add ${rule_next} $@

    rule_next=3D$((${rule_next} + ${rule_inc}))
   =20
    # Note the are a bit odd since they are used by the next rule
    # Warning: These will FAIL if an absoule rule nr is used in one of
    # the rules before the one being skipped to
    rule_skip_1=3D$((${rule_next} + ${rule_inc} * 2))
    rule_skip_2=3D$((${rule_next} + ${rule_inc} * 3))
    rule_skip_3=3D$((${rule_next} + ${rule_inc} * 4))
}
