.TH echo0 1
.SH NAME
echo0 \- print arguments to stdout, separated by 0-byte
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B echo0
[
.I args
]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B echo0
prints its command line arguments to stdout, like echo. However,
.B echo0
puts a zero-byte after each argument, including the last one, and
does not print a final newline.

This can be used to print arguments containing spaces, newlines, etc.,
in a way which will prevent improper interpretation of those characters.
The output of
.B echo0
is suitable for input into things like
.IR "perl -0" ,
.IR "xargs -0" ,
or
.IR "tar --null" .
The
.I "-print0"
argument to
.B find
produces output in the same format.
.SH OPTIONS
None.
