Hi Richard, Vladimir -

 many thanks for the suggestions. The typical occurence of 2^n- 1 suggests
 a best possible smooth expression in q-brackets/q-factorials/q-binomials
 to base 2, I hoped there were an even more concise general expression
 possible...

 Also I'll see, whether the reference to A158474 gives some more food.

 Sincerely -

Gottfried Helms
