Bash: How to Echo Tab and Newline
Monday, January 24th, 2011While printing out result in bash, sometime we need to echo tab or newline for nice, gorgeous, maning looking format. The code below will NOT print tab space and newline
echo "username\t password\n"
In order to print tab and newline, invoke -e in the echo command
ehco -e "username\t\t password\n"
