You can also do
for C in Character'('0') .. '9' loop
which gives an interesting, if difficult to read, sequence of 3 apostrophes
separated by other characters.
As long as the compiler knows the type of at least one of the literals it will
be happy. As the OP pointed out, making at least one of them an object will do
it. If he wants the literals in the loop statement, "Character range" would be
my choice.
