| Jun 8, 2015 at 16:04 | comment | added | Stéphane Chazelas | @cdosborn, well no, %s doesn't do any expansion. It's %b that does echo-like expansion. Also note that %b or echo expansion is different from the one done by awk (or the format argument of printf) for octal sequences: you need \011, \11 won't do. | |
| Jun 8, 2015 at 15:34 | comment | added | cdosborn | @StéphaneChazelas, i'm only interested in one line (I should have mentioned). I think %b is unnecessary, if you replace it with just s then the escapes will be interpreted anyways. | |
