Use Heredoc for printing multiple lines echo <<<
Herodoc
An alternative to using quotes is to use heredoc syntax (<<<). Begin by writing the "<<<" followed by the terminator label (which can be any valid label, I used "te"). Then write the string and finally, on a new line write the terminator. The contents of the string are evaluated. For instance
echo <<<te //te is an arbitrary label
Just here we have
some text which can
be evaluated including $something
te; //finally repeat the label
//result: Just here we have some text which can be evaluated including Oh something!
