I usually would use a \n to tell my shell script to line feed but that does not work using Red Hat/Suse /bin/bash. How can I tell my /bin/bash shell script to \n line feed without doing an echo " " > $outfile? TIA!

What exactly is it you would normally do that doesn't work?

adding a \n to the last thing you output doesn't work? echo -e 'This line is terminated by a line feed\n' > $outfile for example
