## Comments:

      ECHO displays (echos) its arguments to the console during CONFIG.SYS /
      FDCONFIG.SYS processing when device drivers are loaded (when DEVICE=
      lines are executed).
      ECHO is a command internal to kernel.sys and needs no other file
      in order to work. There also exists a command.com ECHO command with
      different options.
