The s6-frontend-helper-echo internal program

+ +

+ s6-frontend-helper-echo is a small utility to echo arguments to stdout. +It is not meant to be called directly, +although nothing bad will happen if you do. It is used in command lines crafted by +s6 live status instead of the POSIX +echo +program, because implementations of echo are infamously inconsistent with +regards to options and arguments starting with a dash, so it's better not to rely on +them at all. +

+ +

+ s6-frontend-helper-echo is basically a copy of +s6-echo and +behaves exactly the same. The program has been included in s6-frontend in order to avoid +a dependency to s6-portable-utils. +
