The table of backslash escapes in the echo(1) man page does not
display correctly for me under RedHat Linux 7.0. It does display
correctly in previous RH releases.
% rpm -q -f /usr/share/man/man1/echo.1.gz
sh-utils-2.0-11
The section in question:
Without -E, the following sequences are recognized and
interpolated:
the character whose ASCII code is NNN (octal)
b backslash
a
c.... alert (BEL)
k
s.TP suppress trailing newline
p
a
form feed
e
new line
carriage return
horizontal tab
vertical tab
