Try removing the ";" on this one. You already have a CRLF because the "do"
statement is on another line.

There are a few errors in this one. Here is an example that works:
COUNTER=0
while [ $COUNTER -lt 10 ]
do
echo "COUNTER $COUNTER"
let COUNTER=$COUNTER+1
done

Same here. This one works:
COUNTER=20
until [ $COUNTER -lt 10 ]
do
echo "COUNTER $COUNTER"
let COUNTER=$COUNTER-1
done
