How to generate multiple legacy or segwit bitcoin address

Question

I would like to generate multiple bitcoin (and litecoin) addresses via Bitcoin Core (and Litecoin Core). I saw this topic How can I generate a large number of Bitcoin addresses? but "keypool" does not work in the Bitcoin Core console (which is accessible with CTRL+T or in Window menu>Console). I saw that I can generate new address with this command line : getnewaddress label addresstype but it's a little bit long because I want to generate at least 100 address for each address type.

Thanks !

I want to generate at least 100 address for each address type

You can use for loop to create 100 bech32 addresses in default wallet('bech32' can be replaced with 'legacy or 'p2sh-segwit':

Linux:

for i in {1..100}; do bitcoin-cli -rpcwallet="" getnewaddress " " "bech32"; done

Windows (PowerShell):

 for ($i=1; $i -le 100; $i++) {.\bitcoin-cli -rpcwallet="" getnewaddress " " "bech32"}
