Bash Script for a newline
 

Hello,

I am trying to write a bash script which should take some characters to a new line. I tried using \n for the feeder but this refused to work out. Can somebody help me out asap.

Thanks

Something like this?

The \n is the newline, and the -e option allows the \n to be interpreted as a newline (by default, I think it is printed literally). For other output builtins, it may be different; for printf, I think you need to include the %b format option to allow backslash-escaped characters to be interpreted that way. The manual page for bash might be worth a look, too.

I hope this helps!
