Is 'print' some local version of 'echo' ?

'print' and 'echo' are both builtins with kornshell. I started using
print because I mistakenly though echo was not builtin, thus less
efficient. When I discovered my error, I decided to keep using 'print'
because in many cases, it is the more intuitive term for an English
speaker.
