Note the apostrophe which was removed - it means that the shell doesn't try to interpret the remainder of the script as an argument to echo. Wrapping everything in double-quotes would work too, without having to re-word the message; e.g. - echo E: this calls for suicide... okay, I'll try to continue instead... >&2 + echo "E: this calls for suicide... okay, I'll try to continue instead..." >&2 Cameron
