a little problem about echo

[gdicnng]

[Enter feedback here]

( I speak Chinese , my English is not so good. )

in the document , it say , To echo a blank line on the screen, type : echo.

But there is a little problem about this.

If there is already a file named "echo" in the current directory , then type "echo." in CMD , it will show error information as below :

'echo.' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

I think the document should warn people about this situation.

Some years ago , I meet this problem , and I asked people here ( a Chinese website ) : https://tieba.baidu.com/p/4771590029 .
One say that I can use "echo," or "echo+" instead of "echo." .
I don't know why , but it works .
Today I think of this problem , so I report this problem here .
