$SHORT_DOC echo [-neE] [arg ...]
-Output the ARGs. If -n is specified, the trailing newline is
-suppressed. If the -e option is given, interpretation of the
-following backslash-escaped characters is turned on:
- \a alert (bell)
- \b backspace
- \c suppress trailing newline
- \E escape character
- \f form feed
- \n new line
- \r carriage return
- \t horizontal tab
- \v vertical tab
- \\ backslash
- \num the character whose ASCII code is NUM (octal).
-
-You can explicitly turn off the interpretation of the above characters
-with the -E option.
+Write arguments to the standard output.
+
+Display the ARGs on the standard output followed by a newline.
+
+Options:
+ -n do not append a newline
+ -e enable interpretation of the following backslash escapes
+ -E explicitly suppress interpretation of backslash escapes
+
+`echo' interprets the following backslash-escaped characters:
+ \a alert (bell)
+ \b backspace
+ \c suppress further output
+ \e escape character
+ \f form feed
+ \n new line
+ \r carriage return
+ \t horizontal tab
+ \v vertical tab
+ \\ backslash
+ \0nnn the character whose ASCII code is NNN (octal). NNN can be
+ 0 to 3 octal digits
+ \xHH the eight-bit character whose value is HH (hexadecimal). HH
+ can be one or two hex digits

+Exit Status:
+Returns success unless a write error occurs.
