I generally avoid using echo because it has a bunch of portability gotchas
which printf mostly doesn't have. If you'd prefer echo, that's fine though,
just let me know and I can send v2.

The rest of the script is using echo for errors, so let's stick to it
for consistency. Thanks!

Sure thing, I'll send v2. Thanks! :-)
