Errr, echo is a bash builtin, too (and has been for quite some time) - so, it *should* work - I don't know what half arsed shell Ted is using, but most of them have echo builtin as far as I'm aware.
True enough -- now that you point it out and I check it in "man bash".
I'd been going on the result of "which echo" (--> /bin/echo) and on a mind-set established long before bash was born.
Try "type echo" instead of "which echo"
