    [Console] How to echo multiple lines into screen?

    How do I echo multiple lines on the screen?
    I used:

    Code:
    developer 1
con_filter_enable 1
con_filter_text "!--"
contimes 8
con_notifytime 3

//When in game I uses
echo "!--1 Line"
echo "!--2 Line"
echo "!--3 Line"
echo "!--4 Line"
    but it comes out like this: (Screenshot)

    Code:
    !--1 Line !--2 Line !--3 Line !--4 Line
    I want it to echo multiple lines on the screen.

    No newline tags existed it seems (/n). Changing con_filter and contimes every line doesn't work, and I don't see Wait or Sleep command available to be used. Help would be nice.

    What's wrong with "say" or "say_team" with alias?

        I found newline doesn't work.


        Setting con_filter_enable 0 will enable multi line echo. But will output anything on the screen. I prefer not to see all the errors and commands on console.


        Writing

        Code:
        con_filter_enable 0
echo "!--1 Line"
echo "!--2 Line"
echo "!--3 Line"
echo "!--4 Line"
con_filter_enable 1
        Prints multi line echo for 1 time, and then bugged out into 1 line after that.

        I don't want to "say" help information for my own script to anyone. Check the screenshot for a peek of the script .

          How does "con_filter_enable" even work and what does it do?
          See http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfile.../?id=221277004, he is using

          Code:
          con_filter_text "Damage"
con_filter_text_out "Player:"
con_filter_enable "2"
          Don't know what the "2" means. But maybe experimenting with this stuff may help you.

            Yes. I want it to display like this.



            And from the help;

            Code:
            con_filter_enable 0		Filters console output based on the setting of con_filter_text. 1 filters completely, 2 displays filtered text brighter than ot (incomplete description)
con_filter_text			Text with which to filter console spew. Set con_filter_enable 1 or 2 to activate.
con_filter_text_out		Text with which to filter OUT of console spew. Set con_filter_enable 1 or 2 to activate.
            con_filter_enable is just making the output white. Is this a bug?
