Hi Guys,
while executing the following command : print "-ABC" is giving following error :

ksh: print: bad option(s)

I cannot use echo for some other reasons, so any other option ?

$ print -ABC     
ksh: print: -A: unknown option
$ print -- -ABC
-ABC

Use the standard command, printf.

printf "%s\n" "-ABC"
