Here are some common options for the echo command in Bash:
-
-n: Suppresses the trailing newline, so the next output appears on the same line.echo -n "Hello, " echo "World!" -
-e: Enables interpretation of backslash escapes, allowing you to use special characters like\n(newline) or\t(tab).echo -e "Line 1\nLine 2" -
-E: Disables interpretation of backslash escapes (this is the default behavior).echo -E "Line 1\nLine 2" # Outputs: Line 1\nLine 2 -
--help: Displays help information about theechocommand and its options.echo --help -
--version: Shows the version information of theechocommand.echo --version
