Bash Script: Echo continuation across many lines
I am writing a bash script that automatically generates a macro program.
I want to have an echo on multiple lines and getting an error

Code:
/home/chaos/instru-correct.sh: line 309: command line is: command not found

I am using

Code:
      echo "# The general synopsis of the $mfl" \ 
           "command line is"                                >> $mfl
