13214 @command{echo} writes each given @var{string} to standard output, with a
13218 echo [@var{option}]@dots{} [@var{string}]@dots{}
13221 @mayConflictWithShellBuiltIn{echo}
13224 strings cannot be passed to @command{echo} as non-option arguments.
13225 It is therefore not advisable to use @command{echo} for printing unknown or
13228 @command{echo}.  @xref{printf invocation}.
13291 @command{echo}'s first argument is not @option{-n} it outputs
13293 example, @code{echo -ne hello} outputs @samp{-ne hello} instead of
13295 Note to echo the string @samp{-n}, one of the characters
13297 For example, @code{echo -e '\x2dn'}.
