Well, on my machine, printf appears to need double \\ from the RISC OS
CLI, but in bash, it works as expected (in interactive mode at least):

*printf "Hello world\n"
Hello worldn*
*printf "Hello world\\n"
Hello world
*bash
bash-4.2$ printf "Hello world\n"
Hello world
bash-4.2$

I'm not sure if the behaviour under the RISC OS CLI is a bug or not...
