NAME
    echo  -  echo arguments

SYNOPSIS
    echo [ arg ... ]

DESCRIPTION
    Echo writes its arguments in order as a line on the
    standard output file.  It is mainly useful for pro-
    ducing diagnostics in command files.

    Certain escape sequences are recognized:

        ``\n'' causes the newline character to be written.

        ``\c'' terminates echo without a newline.

        ``\0N'' causes the octal number N to be written.
