kprint Command

Syntax
kprint arguments... (ksh print) Echo the arguments.
kprint -n arguments... Echo the arguments, without a trailing newline.
kprint -e arguments... Echo the arguments, expanding backslash escapes (default setting).
kprint -r arguments... Echo the arguments, without expanding backslash escapes (see \Qhelp ksh backslash').
kprint -u n arguments... Echo the arguments to file descriptor n.
kprint - arguments... Echo the arguments. This ensures that arguments is not treated as an option, even if it starts with a dash (\Q-'). The builtin alias echo is equal to kprint..

arguments are the arguments to echo.

n is a file descriptor.
