Resource Compiler file editing (i.e. " *.rc " files): Echoing to the terminal like Linux?
===

I am editing the Android phone file "init.tuna.rc" so that it prints to me some basic debugging checkpoint messages so I can analyze how far the phone gets in the boot process.

Does anyone know if you can simply insert the shell scripting syntax for console printing?

(I need to know this if someone can help me before I rebuild all of my code for the Android tree to test this debugging code, given the process can a while)

Will the following work?  I want to insert in the following code snippet into the "init.tuna.rc" file:

    # Boot debugging Checkpoint #2
	echo "Check #2:  Successfully wrote the file system data, including the wifi directories!"
