In gen-lock-obj.sh--which uses #! /bin/sh--it uses "echo -n" to generate its file... only, the echo in /bin/sh is often designed to be POSIX/UNIX compliant, and so -n is often not supported (FWIW, I'm on macOS 10.14.6 with /bin/sh as bash 3.2.57(1)). You can apparently use "\c" at the end of the thing you are echoing to get "no new line" in a POSIX/UNIC compliant echo (though, that doesn't seem to work with /bin/bash, only /bin/sh ;P).
