Title: Use echo's "-e" option on lines with escape sequences.

On Ubuntu's version of bash (and most likely other Linux distributions), echo does not interpret escape sequences by default (it is compiled without --enable-xpg-echo-default).

An alternative would be adding "shopt -s xpg_echo" to the script after "set -e".
