Subject: [PATCH] Use printf rather than echo -n.

From: Jason Riedy <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 06 Dec 2005 14:21:52 -0800

On AIX, there is no -n option to the system's echo.  Instead,
it needs the '\c' control character.  We could replace
  echo -n "foo"
with
  echo -e "foo\c"
but printf is recommended by most man pages.  Tested on AIX
5.3, Solaris 8, and Debian.
