why newline scape sequence does not work in Freebsd's bash

[Любомир Григоров]

try with the -e flag:

$ FRUIT_BASKET="apples oranges pears"
$ echo -e 'My fruit basket contains: \n $FRUIT_BASKET'
My fruit basket contains:
$FRUIT_BASKET


>Why  the scape sequence; newline (\n) does not work  in  FreeBSD's  bash,
 However, it works  both  in Linux and Solaris bash?
